Bath Resealing for Howdendyke homes
Our technicians come to Howdendyke for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- A messy previous reseal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Bath resealing at your home in Howdendyke
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. If you are dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Howdendyke questions
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Howdendyke?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Why it’s worth resealing in Howdendyke
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Howdendyke
For anyone letting property in or around Howdendyke, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it 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.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
