What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gorton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

How we price bath resealing

There’s no charge for travel to Gorton. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

FAQs for Gorton

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Gorton and the rest of Greater Manchester. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you cover Gorton?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Gorton and the rest of Greater Manchester. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How much does bath resealing cost in Gorton?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your M18 postcode.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
