About our bath resealing in Chester Park
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and damp near the bath, across baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Chester Park and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Your questions about bath resealing in Chester Park
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Chester Park included. Travel is included in the price.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How long will it take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What else we do in Chester Park
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Chester Park. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
For landlords and businesses
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.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
If you are in Chester Park and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
