About our bath resealing in Giggleswick
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We’re often asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, across baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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 run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for Giggleswick
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you need bath resealing in Giggleswick?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Gaps in the seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who turns up on the day
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Giggleswick. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- No need to remove anything
- No extra charge for your area
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
See our prices page.
What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
