Bath Resealing in Hawkswick
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Hawkswick, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
How we handle bath resealing in Hawkswick
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and old sealant that looks dirty, across kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Hawkswick, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Your questions about bath resealing in Hawkswick
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across North Yorkshire.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Signs you need bath resealing in Hawkswick
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Gaps by the taps
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
- How the room is protected while they work
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
