Bath resealing in Barton, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and unsealed corners.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Barton: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you need bath resealing in Barton?
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Look out for these signs:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price covers travel
- How changes to the job are handled
What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
