Bath resealing in Horbury, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Common questions in Horbury
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Wakefield. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Signs you need bath resealing in Horbury

You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Unsealed corners
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who will actually do the work
- How soon you can use it again
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
