Bath resealing in Lawnswood, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We’re frequently asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leeds.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Landlord and trade work in Lawnswood
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What we are called out for in Lawnswood

- Unsealed corners
