  • Mould you can’t clean out

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with an untidy old seal and gaps by the taps, 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 Billington

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Billington?

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Billington, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
