Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Moss Side, Lancashire
Bath resealing in and around Moss Side: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray

How we handle bath resealing in Moss Side
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps in the seal and missing sealant behind the taps.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Moss Side and across Lancashire.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Signs you need bath resealing in Moss Side
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow around two hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What affects the price in Moss Side
You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Moss Side
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Moss Side use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Moss Side, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Let steam out after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Moss Side: your questions answered
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work in Moss Side?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Moss Side from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your FY8 postcode.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
