Bath resealing in Baxenden

About our bath resealing in Baxenden

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We’re often asked to fix unsealed corners and sealant that’s split or lifting, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

Questions from Baxenden

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Baxenden included. Travel is included in the price.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What we’re called out for in Baxenden

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Resealing in Baxenden: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units

Landlord and trade work in Baxenden

If you manage property in Baxenden, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

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

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
