- Unsealed corners
- An untidy old seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

About our bath resealing in Little Leigh
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Little Leigh, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Why it’s worth resealing in Little Leigh
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Little Leigh questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Little Leigh?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you work in Little Leigh?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Little Leigh. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are there extra charges for Little Leigh?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
