Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Skipwith, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Signs you need bath resealing in Skipwith
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An untidy old seal
- Stained silicone
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Skipwith. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why Skipwith clients choose us
- No extra charge for your area
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Your questions about bath resealing in Skipwith
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
