About our bath resealing in Southburn

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We are often asked to fix leaks at the edges and black spots in the silicone, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Why it’s worth resealing in Southburn

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Take a look at our prices page.

When to call us in Southburn

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Southburn questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
