Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows.
Baths
Baths move more than any other fitting, so we fill it with water before sealing. The joint is then laid with the bath at its lowest point and isn’t torn the first time it’s used.

For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
If you manage several properties in or around Shipley Bridge, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
The process
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Shipley Bridge needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear the area around the work

Why deal with it now?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. It lifts, traps water and grows mould behind it, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out. Older cottages and farmhouses around Shipley Bridge can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

Do you need bathroom resealing in Shipley Bridge?
Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Soap residue, oils and leftover silicone film all get in the way, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
In the older streets around Church of St Bartholomew, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
