Bath resealing in Knayton without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and damp near the bath, we can typically put it right, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Knayton
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- An untidy old seal
Before you book anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Questions from Knayton
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover the whole of North Yorkshire?
The whole UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Do you cover Knayton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Knayton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
