- Damp near the bath

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 normally cheaper.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we handle bath resealing in Yaddlethorpe
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for black spots in the silicone and silicone smeared on tiles, across baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What we are called out for in Yaddlethorpe
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps
- Stained silicone
- An untidy old seal
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts

Resealing in Yaddlethorpe: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

FAQs for Yaddlethorpe
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across North Lincolnshire.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What affects the price in Yaddlethorpe
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
