About our bath resealing in Sedgefield
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Common problems we fix in Sedgefield
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Leaks at the edges
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How we price bath resealing
We don’t charge extra for travel to Sedgefield. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
Most customers in Sedgefield get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Landlord and trade work in Sedgefield
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sedgefield as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
