Bath resealing at your home in Egglescliffe
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Egglescliffe and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What else we do in Egglescliffe
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Egglescliffe as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
When to call us in Egglescliffe
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Questions from Egglescliffe
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How much does bath resealing cost in Egglescliffe?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are there extra charges for Egglescliffe?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
