Questions from Cheadle
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Cheadle and the rest of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Bath resealing in Cheadle without replacing anything
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and a messy previous reseal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Air the room after use
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
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, for the same reason.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Related advice
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
