About our bath resealing in Stead
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with stained silicone and damp near the bath, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Stead and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Stead
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Bradford.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. 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.

Do you need bath resealing in Stead?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
The things customers generally mention when they call include:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Open a window after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What bath resealing costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Stead. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
