Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Great Sankey, Warrington
Fixed-price bath resealing in Great Sankey and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps by the taps
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Leaks at the edges
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Bath resealing in Great Sankey without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and gaps by the taps, we can normally put it right, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Great Sankey: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Great Sankey, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Common problems we fix in Great Sankey
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black mould in the sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Unsealed corners
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- How to care for the finish
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths

How the visit works
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 typically takes around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
