How we handle bath resealing in Etherley Dene
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone smeared on tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Etherley Dene and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

- One price list for the whole UK

What affects the price in Etherley Dene
We do not charge extra for travel to Etherley Dene. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
