What we are called out for in Tansterne
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Look out for any of the following:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps by the taps
Before booking anyone
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Bath resealing in Tansterne without replacing anything
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 are frequently asked to fix stained silicone and sealant that’s split or lifting, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Resealing in Tansterne: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hidden water damage

Your questions about bath resealing in Tansterne
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Which areas do you work in?
All of East Riding of Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Landlord and trade work in Tansterne
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
