10 questions to ask before you book

Bath resealing at your home in Bolton

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and old sealant that looks dirty.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Common questions in Bolton

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

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

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do you come to Bolton?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Bolton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Resealing in Bolton: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. 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.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

What affects the price in Bolton

We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bolton

If you manage property in Bolton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray

  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
