How we handle bath resealing in Staxton
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We regularly repair baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are an untidy old seal and missing sealant behind the taps.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Related advice
Signs you need bath resealing in Staxton
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A flexing bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Air the room after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles on a shelf
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What affects the price in Staxton
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Common questions in Staxton
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time, usually around a day.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
