About our bath resealing in Adlington

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are old sealant that looks dirty and silicone coming away from the tiles.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Adlington

How we price bath resealing

We don’t charge extra for travel to Adlington. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Questions from Adlington

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
