Bath resealing in Moorends, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re often asked to fix black spots in the silicone and an untidy old seal, in wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms

Moorends questions

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

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.

Do you come to Moorends?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Moorends and the rest of Doncaster. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Are there extra charges for Moorends?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Landlord and trade work in Moorends

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Doncaster and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we’re called out for in Moorends

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 typically the cheaper route.
