Resealing in East Cowick: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What else we do in East Cowick
Can I fix it myself?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms

Do you need bath resealing in East Cowick?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps in the seal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Stained silicone
