About our bath resealing in Henshaw
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps in the seal.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Henshaw and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Why it’s worth resealing in Henshaw
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. 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.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One price list for the entire UK
- Most jobs done in one visit
See our prices page.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Questions from Henshaw
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Northumberland.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
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.
Are there extra charges for Henshaw?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?
Everywhere in the UK, Henshaw included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Landlord and trade work in Henshaw
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Henshaw use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What else we do in Henshaw
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
