About our bath resealing in Oglet

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Oglet and across Liverpool.

Do you need bath resealing in Oglet?

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Look out for these signs:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What bath resealing costs

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

For a price in Oglet, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Questions from Oglet

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Do you cover the entire of Liverpool?

We cover the whole UK, including Oglet and the rest of Liverpool. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
