Bath resealing for Fallowfield homes

Questions from Fallowfield

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How much does bath resealing cost in Fallowfield?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your M14 postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover the entire of Greater Manchester?

All of Greater Manchester, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How we price bath resealing

We do not charge extra for travel to Fallowfield. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Signs you need bath resealing in Fallowfield

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What preparation is included
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before booking

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
