The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Your questions about bath resealing in Scholes
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Scholes?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your WN1 postcode.
Are there extra charges for Scholes?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
