Bath resealing at your home in Ferryhill
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can generally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What bath resealing costs
There is no area surcharge for Ferryhill. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
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.
When to call us in Ferryhill
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

- Missing sealant behind the taps
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Ferryhill questions
Do you work in Ferryhill?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ferryhill. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Why it’s worth resealing in Ferryhill
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
