Bath Resealing in Caldy
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Caldy, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- An untidy old seal
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
About our bath resealing in Caldy
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about gaps by the taps and damp near the bath.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Common problems we fix in Caldy
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- Leaks at the edges
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal
- An untidy old seal
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price covers travel
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Landlord and trade work in Caldy
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Your questions about bath resealing in Caldy
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you cover the whole of Wirral?
All of Wirral, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the area is dry
