Bath resealing in Dimsdale without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and mould you can’t clean out.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Do you need bath resealing in Dimsdale?
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Look out for these signs:
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- What preparation is included
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Dimsdale: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you come to Dimsdale?
We do. Technicians travel to Dimsdale from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
