Bath resealing in Sproston Green

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything

How we handle bath resealing in Sproston Green

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are stained silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to compare quotes

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

What affects the price in Sproston Green

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Sproston Green, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

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 typically cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Sproston Green questions

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Sproston Green and the rest of Cheshire East. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
