Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chapel Chorlton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Resealing in Chapel Chorlton: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Chapel Chorlton: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your ST5 postcode.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Common problems we fix in Chapel Chorlton
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- An untidy old seal
- Damp near the bath
- Stained silicone
- Unsealed corners
Before booking anyone
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
