Trusted bath resealing in Pemberton

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Bath resealing in Pemberton, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and gaps in the seal, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we’re called out for in Pemberton

Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Resealing in Pemberton: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it

FAQs for Pemberton

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Wigan.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Pemberton?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Pemberton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
