- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
Bath resealing in Mellor, done in place
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and black spots in the silicone, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Mellor. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most clients in Mellor get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Mellor
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Questions from Mellor
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you work in Mellor?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Mellor. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
What we are called out for in Mellor
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Stained silicone
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Comparing quotes
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
- If travel is included in the price
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep the joints dry
- Open a window after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
