About our bath resealing in Leighton

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about unsealed corners and stained silicone.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Leighton and across Shropshire.

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

If you are in Leighton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Do you need bath resealing in Leighton?

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Resealing in Leighton: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why Leighton customers choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes around two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Leighton questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

When can you do it?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How long does resealing take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
