About our bath resealing in Seaham
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most frequently call us about missing sealant behind the taps and black spots in the silicone.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Seaham and across County Durham.

What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep the joints dry
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Questions from Seaham
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across County Durham.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
