Bath resealing at your home in Carrbrook
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Carrbrook questions
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SK15 postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.

- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
