Hylton Castle questions
Are there extra charges for Hylton Castle?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Hylton Castle?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hylton Castle. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?

I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
