Bath resealing in Paddington without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are silicone coming away from the tiles and gaps by the taps.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Paddington and across Greater Manchester.

Resealing in Paddington: why it matters

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Paddington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We make sure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Common problems we fix in Paddington

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Look out for these signs:

  • Unsealed corners
  • An untidy old seal
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

FAQs for Paddington

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover the entire of Greater Manchester?

All of Greater Manchester, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How much does bath resealing cost in Paddington?

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Landlord and trade work in Paddington

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Paddington use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
