Bath resealing at your home in Allerton Bywater
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and the jobs we see most are unsealed corners and silicone smeared on tiles.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Common questions in Allerton Bywater
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Allerton Bywater. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What affects the price in Allerton Bywater
We charge the same across the UK, including Allerton Bywater. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Allerton Bywater. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Other services in Allerton Bywater
When to call us in Allerton Bywater
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
