Bath resealing at your home in Castledykes
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and gaps in the seal, we can help, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- 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
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Common questions in Castledykes
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Generally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you come to Castledykes?

What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Do you need bath resealing in Castledykes?
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What protection goes down before work starts

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
