DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Bath resealing in Hutton, done in place

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hutton and across Lancashire.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Hutton: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?

The entire UK, including all of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

How long before I can shower?

Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hutton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

What bath resealing costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Hutton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hutton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need bath resealing in Hutton

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Comparing quotes

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
