About our bath resealing in Wistow
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with leaks at the edges and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

FAQs for Wistow
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wistow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
When to call us in Wistow
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wistow use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Dry the seal after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
