Bath resealing in Oakgrove without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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 pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common problems we fix in Oakgrove
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps in the seal
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price

Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Common questions in Oakgrove
Do you cover the whole of Cheshire East?
We cover the whole UK, including Oakgrove and the rest of Cheshire East. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
