Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Prestwich, Bury
Our repair technicians come to Prestwich for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Bath resealing at your home in Prestwich
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and damp near the bath, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Advice
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Questions from Prestwich
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
How long does resealing take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
How we price bath resealing
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
