How we handle bath resealing in Riding Mill
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are damp near the bath and an untidy old seal.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Common questions in Riding Mill
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What else we do in Riding Mill
Do you need bath resealing in Riding Mill?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- A messy previous reseal
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
