When to call us in Guide Bridge
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common questions in Guide Bridge
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Guide Bridge.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Tameside. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
If you are in Guide Bridge and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Get a quote
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
