How we handle bath resealing in Chilton Moor
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include a messy previous reseal and gaps by the taps, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Resealing in Chilton Moor: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common questions in Chilton Moor
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chilton Moor
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Chilton Moor
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
