Bath resealing in Hazelhurst, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include unsealed corners and a messy previous reseal, across basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hazelhurst and across Tameside.

Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. 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. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Landlord and trade work in Hazelhurst
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Hazelhurst, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Hazelhurst

Common problems we fix in Hazelhurst
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Damp near the bath
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps

Common questions in Hazelhurst
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
