Common problems we fix in Maghull
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to care for the finish
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
How we handle bath resealing in Maghull
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and mould you can’t clean out, we can help.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Questions from Maghull
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are there extra charges for Maghull?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Do you work in Maghull?
We do. We send a technician to Maghull for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Why it’s worth resealing in Maghull

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
