Whitley Head questions
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Bath resealing in Whitley Head, done in place
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Common problems we fix in Whitley Head
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Unsealed corners
Comparing quotes
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Open a window after bathing
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
