Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Higher Ince, Wigan
Our technicians come to Higher Ince for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Gaps by the taps
- An untidy old seal
- Black spots in the silicone
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, 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.
Bath resealing in Higher Ince, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you’re dealing with a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

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

How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WN2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Common problems we fix in Higher Ince
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Stained silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps in the seal
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- How the colour is matched
- How your room will be protected
- How to look after the finish
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Why it’s worth resealing in Higher Ince
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Higher Ince. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
