Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
About our bath resealing in Great Warford
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include unsealed corners and mould you can’t clean out, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Great Warford
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes around two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we’re called out for in Great Warford
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Look out for these signs:
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Mould you cannot clean out

Resealing in Great Warford: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. 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.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Your questions about bath resealing in Great Warford
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cheshire East.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Great Warford?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SK9 postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
