Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hartshead, Kirklees
Fixed-price bath resealing in Hartshead and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

How we handle bath resealing in Hartshead
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are leaks at the edges and silicone smeared on tiles.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common questions in Hartshead
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Do you need bath resealing in Hartshead?
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Let steam out after showers
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
