Bath resealing in Hawes, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

What we can’t put right

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Do you need bath resealing in Hawes?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps by the taps
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What aftercare is recommended
- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Related advice
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Same prices wherever you are

Hawes questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
