About our bath resealing in Ferrensby
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and discoloured, yellow sealant.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

FAQs for Ferrensby
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Will you leave a mess?

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Ferrensby?
We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HG5 postcode.
Do you work in Ferrensby?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Ferrensby and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
When to call us in Ferrensby
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Unsealed corners
- Sealant that is split or lifting
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to look after the finish
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
