About our bath resealing in Great Chilton
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an untidy old seal and black spots in the silicone.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
What we’re called out for in Great Chilton
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal

Landlord and trade work in Great Chilton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Chilton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

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 around two hours, tidy-up included.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- 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, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Great Chilton questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you work in Great Chilton?
We do. We send a technician to Great Chilton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
