About our bath resealing in Langton
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for black mould in the sealant and unsealed corners, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Darlington.

- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

When we would advise against a repair

- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
