Bath resealing for Longport homes

Longport questions

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are there extra charges for Longport?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your ST6 postcode.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Bath resealing in Longport without replacing anything

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty, we can usually put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ST6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Longport

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

For anyone letting property in or around Longport, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we can’t put right

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Materials we work on in Longport

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

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
