Bath resealing in Ireshopeburn without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Ireshopeburn, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

How do I book?

Is the work guaranteed?
