Bath Resealing in Northedge
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for householders, landlords and businesses in Northedge. Send photos for a free, fixed quote.
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you can’t clean out
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hollow or loose tiles

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
