About our bath resealing in Ousby
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and discoloured, yellow sealant, in kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried 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.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Ousby: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Ousby?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What we’re called out for in Ousby
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
