Bath resealing in Jodrell Bank, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal, on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Jodrell Bank and across Cheshire East.

FAQs for Jodrell Bank

Do you charge for travel?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

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

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

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 will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Jodrell Bank, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Signs you need bath resealing in Jodrell Bank

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
