Bath Resealing for Ellel homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Ellel, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
- An untidy old seal
Bath resealing in Ellel without replacing anything
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. We’re often asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and gaps by the taps, in basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ellel and across Lancashire.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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 professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Your questions about bath resealing in Ellel
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Ellel?
We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Air the room after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Ellel, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Ellel. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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, so the joint is at its widest.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ellel. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
