Bath resealing in Sturton by Stow without the cost of replacing. Get a fixed price from your pictures, then we come to you.
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- An untidy old seal
- Stained silicone
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf

- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Bath resealing at your home in Sturton by Stow
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for old sealant that looks dirty and unsealed corners, across shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Sturton by Stow questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?

- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
