Bath resealing for Hartwith homes

Bath resealing in Hartwith without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant.

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

Landlord and trade work in Hartwith

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Common questions in Hartwith

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Hartwith is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 typically the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Hartwith. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
