Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Longley, Sheffield
Bath resealing in and around Longley: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Gaps by the taps
- Gaps in the seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
About our bath resealing in Longley
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and discoloured, yellow sealant.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
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.

What we are called out for in Longley
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps in the seal
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Longley as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
