Bath resealing in Ordsall, done in place
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why it’s worth resealing in Ordsall
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What bath resealing costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Ordsall
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Keep the joints dry
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
