- Sealant that’s split or lifting

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
About our bath resealing in Wainstalls
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are often asked to fix old sealant that looks dirty and gaps in the seal, across shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Landlord and trade work in Wainstalls
If you manage property in Wainstalls, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When to call us in Wainstalls
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Look out for any of the following:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Stained silicone

- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

FAQs for Wainstalls
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Wainstalls?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the curing time from us, normally around a day.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What bath resealing costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
