Bath resealing in Congleton Edge, done in place
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. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and gaps in the seal, we can help, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Questions from Congleton Edge
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
