Bath resealing in Middleton

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hidden water damage
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How we handle bath resealing in Middleton

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and unsealed corners, we can normally put it right.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Resealing in Middleton: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One price list for the whole UK

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • 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.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Middleton questions

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
