Bath resealing for Mossley homes

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Bath resealing in Mossley without replacing anything

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Resealing in Mossley: why it matters

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before booking

See our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Landlord and trade work in Mossley

If you manage property in Mossley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Signs you need bath resealing in Mossley

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Common reasons people in Mossley contact us include:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Common questions in Mossley

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How long before I can shower?

Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Are you accredited?

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

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
