Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Nothing taken out or refitted

About our bath resealing in Handley
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s stained silicone and an untidy old seal, we can help, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays

Signs you need bath resealing in Handley
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Damp near the bath
- Stained silicone

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Handley questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Do you cover the entire of Cheshire West and Chester?
Everywhere in the UK, Handley included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you come to Handley?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Handley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
