Trusted bath resealing in Levenshulme

Bath resealing at your home in Levenshulme

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about mould you can’t clean out and silicone coming away from the tiles.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow around two hours.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in Levenshulme

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hidden water damage
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Levenshulme

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No extra charge for your area

Take a look at our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Signs you need bath resealing in Levenshulme

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Gaps by the taps

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
