Bath resealing in Midton without replacing anything

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s gaps in the seal and mould you can’t clean out, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

When to call us in Midton

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • An untidy old seal

Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Midton questions

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your PA19 postcode.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you cover Midton?

We do. We send a technician to Midton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What affects the price in Midton

There is no charge for travel to Midton. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What happens on the day

On the day, 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 are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
