Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Girlington, Bradford
Local bath resealing for Girlington: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Stained silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Store bottles on a shelf
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Bath resealing in Girlington without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and black mould in the sealant.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Girlington questions
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Common problems we fix in Girlington
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- Leaks at the edges
Before booking anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
