Bath resealing at your home in Harraby
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s an untidy old seal and gaps in the seal, we can usually put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What else we do in Harraby
What we are called out for in Harraby
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Aftercare advice
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Harraby, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Harraby
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
