Common questions in Mellor
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover Mellor?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Mellor. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Bath resealing in Mellor without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with stained silicone and a messy previous reseal, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
What we are called out for in Mellor
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How your room will be protected
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mellor use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
