Bath Resealing in Saltergate
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homes and businesses in Saltergate and across North Yorkshire. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- An untidy old seal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Bath resealing in Saltergate without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and black mould in the sealant, in baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Let steam out after showers
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Keep the joints dry
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Saltergate questions
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across North Yorkshire.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

How the visit works

- 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.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

- Gaps by the taps

Getting a price from photos

Resealing in Saltergate: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
