About our bath resealing in Knutsford
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We are frequently asked to fix black spots in the silicone and gaps by the taps, across basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Knutsford questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Knutsford.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
