About our bath resealing in Ellerker
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We are often asked to fix black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Ellerker?

- Hidden water damage

- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in East Riding of Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Why it’s worth resealing in Ellerker
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ellerker. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
