Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hartburn, Stockton-on-Tees

- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Bath resealing in Hartburn, 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. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and missing sealant behind the taps, we can normally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
