Bath resealing at your home in Clifton
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and discoloured, yellow sealant.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Why it’s worth resealing in Clifton
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

FAQs for Clifton
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Which areas do you work in?
All of York, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When to call us in Clifton
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Look out for these signs:
- A messy previous reseal
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Unsealed corners

What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
Landlords, agents and businesses in Clifton
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.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Clifton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not 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 normally cheaper.
