How we handle bath resealing in Broughton

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We’re often asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Choosing a repair company

What bath resealing costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

FAQs for Broughton

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover the entire of Greater Manchester?

Across the UK, and that includes Broughton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Why it’s worth resealing in Broughton

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Broughton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Work done at your home or business

  • Everything repaired in place

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Baths

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