DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Bath resealing in Colburn without replacing anything
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with leaks at the edges and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire.

FAQs for Colburn
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?
The whole UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Let steam out after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including Colburn. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Colburn, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When to call us in Colburn
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- An untidy old seal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What to look for in a quote
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How to look after the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Resealing in Colburn: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Colburn
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Hidden water damage
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
