Bath resealing in Bolton, done in place

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. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal, we can normally put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Bolton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Why it’s worth resealing in Bolton

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Bolton

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps in the seal

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if they find more damage

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

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.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents often 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.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
