Bath Resealing in Frankby
Bath resealing in and around Frankby: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps by the taps
- Gaps in the seal
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Bath resealing in Frankby, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are black mould in the sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Common problems we fix in Frankby

Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- A year’s guarantee on all work

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Frankby, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Frankby
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do you come to Frankby?
We do. Technicians travel to Frankby from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
