Bath resealing in Temple Hirst without replacing anything

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. If you are dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What we are called out for in Temple Hirst

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Why it’s worth resealing in Temple Hirst

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Temple Hirst. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What bath resealing costs

We do not charge extra for travel to Temple Hirst. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Temple Hirst questions

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
