About our bath resealing in Smithy Green

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about gaps by the taps and gaps in the seal.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Smithy Green

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cheshire East.

Do you come to Smithy Green?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Smithy Green and the rest of Cheshire East. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How long will it take?

Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Do you cover the whole of Cheshire East?

The entire UK, including all of Cheshire East. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Can new silicone go over old?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Will it make a mess?

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

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Open a window after bathing

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

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

When to call us in Smithy Green

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Resealing in Smithy Green: why it matters

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
