Hepworth: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
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.
Do you come to Hepworth?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hepworth from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Resealing in Hepworth: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What we’re called out for in Hepworth
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Stained silicone
- Unsealed corners
- Damp near the bath
- Black spots in the silicone
What your quote should include
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
