Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Priest Hutton, Lancashire
Bath resealing in and around Priest Hutton: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Leaks at the edges
- Black spots in the silicone
- An untidy old seal
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
About our bath resealing in Priest Hutton
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and missing sealant behind the taps, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Priest Hutton as everywhere else we work.

Common questions in Priest Hutton
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you come to Priest Hutton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Priest Hutton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
