Bath resealing in Middlestone Moor, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Advice
Questions from Middlestone Moor
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you come to Middlestone Moor?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Middlestone Moor and the rest of County Durham. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
