Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Altrincham, Trafford
We travel to Altrincham for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Bath resealing in Altrincham without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and a messy previous reseal, we can generally put it right, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Common questions in Altrincham
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Altrincham?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Altrincham. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You’ll get the curing time from us, generally around a day.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why book with us

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What we’re called out for in Altrincham
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A messy previous reseal
- Unsealed corners
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
