Bath Resealing for Mid Yell homes
Fixed-price bath resealing in Mid Yell and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
About our bath resealing in Mid Yell
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and a messy previous reseal, we can typically put it right, on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Mid Yell: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How long will it take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in Mid Yell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Common problems we fix in Mid Yell
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps in the seal
- Gaps by the taps
- Stained silicone

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
