Bath resealing in Townfield, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and gaps by the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

What we’re called out for in Townfield
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black spots in the silicone
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Before you book anyone
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Townfield
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in County Durham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Questions from Townfield
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your DH8 postcode.
Are there extra charges for Townfield?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
