Sherburn in Elmet questions
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How we handle bath resealing in Sherburn in Elmet
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, across baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Why reseal now?
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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Signs you need bath resealing in Sherburn in Elmet
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A messy previous reseal
- Unsealed corners
- Gaps in the seal
- Stained silicone
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
What it costs 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
