Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Hey, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
- Stained silicone
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One price list for the entire UK

Bath resealing in Hey, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most often call us about silicone smeared on tiles and gaps by the taps.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oldham.

What else we do in Hey
What affects the price in Hey
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hey
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Oldham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Signs you need bath resealing in Hey
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A messy previous reseal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Unsealed corners
Comparing quotes
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What aftercare is recommended
How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
