About our bath resealing in Clifton
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We’re often asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and an untidy old seal, across wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Clifton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Landlords, agents and businesses in Clifton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Halton and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Let steam out after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run 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, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Other services in Clifton
What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
For a price in Clifton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
