Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in South Duffield, North Yorkshire
Fixed-price bath resealing in South Duffield and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps in the seal
- Mould you cannot clean out
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
Bath resealing at your home in South Duffield
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant that’s split or lifting and damp near the bath.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

South Duffield: your questions answered
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long will it take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
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.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Do you need bath resealing in South Duffield?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Damp near the bath
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you cannot clean out

What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
