Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Trafford and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

What we’re called out for in Davyhulme

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Gaps by the taps

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

Davyhulme questions

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Trafford.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you come to Davyhulme?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Davyhulme. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Davyhulme. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No need to remove anything
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your M41 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
