Bath resealing for Hesketh Lane homes

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Bath resealing at your home in Hesketh Lane

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and black spots in the silicone, we can generally put it right.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What bath resealing costs

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Hesketh Lane, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms

FAQs for Hesketh Lane

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Are there extra charges for Hesketh Lane?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean 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 we are called out for in Hesketh Lane

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • A messy previous reseal
