Bath resealing in Dawdon, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include leaks at the edges and black mould in the sealant, across basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What else we do in Dawdon
Dawdon: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry
