What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Witton-le-Wear
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Witton-le-Wear use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Resealing in Witton-le-Wear: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Questions from Witton-le-Wear
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long will it take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
