Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Questions from Burngreave
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Let steam out after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What bath resealing costs
There’s no charge for travel to Burngreave. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Why it’s worth resealing in Burngreave
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
