Bath resealing in Stannington without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include gaps by the taps and old sealant that looks dirty, in basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of 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.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Why it’s worth resealing in Stannington
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Your questions about bath resealing in Stannington
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Northumberland. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Do you need bath resealing in Stannington?
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps by the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Stannington, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
