About our bath resealing in Pooley Bridge
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, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps by the taps.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Resealing in Pooley Bridge: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.
- 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.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What affects the price in Pooley Bridge
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
