How we handle bath resealing in Little Ayton
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for leaks at the edges and silicone smeared on tiles, across baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Your questions about bath resealing in Little Ayton
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you work in Little Ayton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Little Ayton. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
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.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit

Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Do you need bath resealing in Little Ayton?
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Look out for these signs:
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Leaks at the edges
