How we handle bath resealing in High Hoyland
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include silicone smeared on tiles and gaps by the taps, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Air the room after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
What affects the price in High Hoyland
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Questions from High Hoyland
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you come to High Hoyland?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to High Hoyland and the rest of Barnsley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
