Bath resealing in Sholver, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Sholver and across Oldham.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths

How we price bath resealing
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Any details about the material
Most clients in Sholver get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not 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.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.

Getting ready for the visit

- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
