Bath resealing in Sowerby Bridge

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

About our bath resealing in Sowerby Bridge

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We’re frequently asked to fix unsealed corners and silicone coming away from the tiles, on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

FAQs for Sowerby Bridge

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Are you accredited?

How quickly can you book me in?

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
