How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath. The room is left tidy.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Your questions about bath resealing in Temple Sowerby

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Temple Sowerby

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Before you book anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Resealing in Temple Sowerby: why it matters

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
