Why it’s worth resealing in Canklow
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Canklow. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Bath resealing in Canklow, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and unsealed corners.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Canklow and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Canklow questions
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover the whole of Rotherham?
We cover the entire UK, including Canklow and the rest of Rotherham. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Canklow?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we’re called out for in Canklow
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
