Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How we handle bath resealing in Runcorn
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can normally put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Runcorn as everywhere else we work.

Questions from Runcorn
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover Runcorn?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Runcorn from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What affects the price in Runcorn
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Common problems we fix in Runcorn
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Stained silicone
- An untidy old seal
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Landlord and trade work in Runcorn
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Runcorn
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
