How we handle bath resealing in Old Denaby
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are mould you can’t clean out and stained silicone.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What else we do in Old Denaby
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DN12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Old Denaby
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A flexing bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
Resealing in Old Denaby: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
