DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Bath resealing in Ryal Fold, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and old sealant that looks dirty, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

FAQs for Ryal Fold
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Blackburn with Darwen. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Blackburn with Darwen.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
