Bath resealing for Bowgreave homes

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we handle bath resealing in Bowgreave

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. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and stained silicone, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

When to call us in Bowgreave

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • How to look after the finish
  • How long it needs to cure
  • If travel is included in the price

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Bowgreave questions

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We will give you the curing time, normally around a day.

Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?

Across the UK, and that includes Bowgreave. Prices do not change with location.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Read our prices page.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
