Bath resealing in Great Smeaton, done in place

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Our repair technicians work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

10 questions to ask before you book

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Great Smeaton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Great Smeaton: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
