Bath resealing in Harpole, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and sealant that’s split or lifting.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

We work in all 364 towns and villages in Northamptonshire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Birmingham, about 41 miles away.
Every address in NN7 is within our area, from the main roads to the quietest streets. Whether you live on High Street, Upper High Street and Carr's Way or a nearby road, a technician can come to you.

Resealing in Harpole: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Harpole
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

What affects the price in Harpole
We do not charge extra for travel to Harpole. The price depends on:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Harpole. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
Common problems we fix in Harpole
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Unsealed corners
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
