Fixed-price bath resealing in Longton and the surrounding area, normally in one visit.
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
How we handle bath resealing in Longton
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s unsealed corners and damp near the bath, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Common questions in Longton
Do you cover Longton?
We do. We send a technician to Longton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Longton is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Do you need bath resealing in Longton?
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
- Damp near the bath
- A messy previous reseal

- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
- What prep work is covered

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Landlord and trade work in Longton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A flexing bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
