Billington questions
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Billington and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Resealing in Billington: why it matters
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How we price bath resealing
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Billington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most customers in Billington get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we’re called out for in Billington
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Stained silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How your room will be protected
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
