About our bath resealing in Little Lever
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and leaks at the edges, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Little Lever as everywhere else we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Common questions in Little Lever
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Common problems we fix in Little Lever
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
- Sealant that is split or lifting
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Little Lever, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
