Bath resealing in Knottingley without replacing anything
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Whether it’s unsealed corners and leaks at the edges, we can typically put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Knottingley
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Missing sealant behind the taps
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Knottingley: your questions answered
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How we price bath resealing
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you are in Knottingley and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
