For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Your questions about bath resealing in Woodhouse Mill
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work in Woodhouse Mill?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Woodhouse Mill and the rest of Sheffield. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What areas do you cover?

What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access

Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

Signs you need bath resealing in Woodhouse Mill
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A messy previous reseal
- Damp near the bath
- Stained silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the colour is matched
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
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.
