Bath resealing in Great Ouseburn, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you are dealing with an untidy old seal and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Common problems we fix in Great Ouseburn
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Look out for any of the following:
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

Why it’s worth resealing in Great Ouseburn
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

- We leave the room as we found it

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Great Ouseburn questions
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Which areas do you work in?
All of York, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What else we do in Great Ouseburn
What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
