DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
About our bath resealing in Bilsborrow
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We’re often asked to fix gaps by the taps and stained silicone, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Questions from Bilsborrow
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Bilsborrow?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
What we are called out for in Bilsborrow
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Why reseal now?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Bilsborrow
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
