Bath resealing in Sutton-on-the-Forest, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are mould you can’t clean out and a messy previous reseal.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When to call us in Sutton-on-the-Forest
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Stained silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not 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 pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Air the room after use
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Sutton-on-the-Forest questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Sutton-on-the-Forest and the rest of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
