Bath resealing in Salterswall

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

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

About our bath resealing in Salterswall

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. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are water getting behind the bath or tray and black mould in the sealant.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 generally cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Salterswall

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal
  • An untidy old seal

Our hiring checklist

Salterswall questions

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Salterswall. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
