DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Bath resealing at your home in Belle Vue
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and missing sealant behind the taps, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Belle Vue questions
Do you come to Belle Vue?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Belle Vue and the rest of Greater Manchester. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Are there extra charges for Belle Vue?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
What affects the price in Belle Vue
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
When to call us in Belle Vue
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Look out for these signs:
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
- Old sealant that looks dirty
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually do the work
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Resealing in Belle Vue: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
