What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

FAQs for Pickering
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you work in Pickering?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Pickering and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Pickering. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pickering. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your YO18 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pickering
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
