Bath resealing in Soothill without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s unsealed corners and damp near the bath, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Soothill as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kirklees and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Let steam out after showers
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What affects the price in Soothill
We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No extra charge for your area
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When to call us in Soothill
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black spots in the silicone
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- When it can be used again
Common questions in Soothill
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us, usually around a day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Kirklees.
