Bath resealing in Ball o' Ditton, done in place

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and a messy previous reseal, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Questions from Ball o' Ditton

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover the whole of Halton?

The whole UK, including all of Halton. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your WA8 postcode.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Repairs by material

Baths

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

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common problems we fix in Ball o' Ditton

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Unsealed corners

Before booking anyone

  • How the colour is matched
