Aughton questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How we handle bath resealing in Aughton

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and gaps in the seal, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Air the room after use

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no area surcharge for Aughton. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Aughton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Aughton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

See our pricing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

When to call us in Aughton

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
