Bath resealing at your home in Royton

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Royton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Royton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

10 questions to ask before booking

Royton: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can landlords book you?

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

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What does bath resealing cost?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
