Bath resealing in Stainforth, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and a messy previous reseal, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Stainforth: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are there extra charges for Stainforth?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Stainforth
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How we price bath resealing
We don’t charge extra for travel to Stainforth. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Stainforth, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
