Bath Resealing for Wallasey homes
Bath resealing across Wallasey and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Mould you can’t clean out
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Bath resealing in Wallasey without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We are often asked to fix gaps by the taps and silicone smeared on tiles, across basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wallasey. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Wallasey questions
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How we price bath resealing
We don’t charge extra for travel to Wallasey. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

When to call us in Wallasey
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Unsealed corners
- Gaps in the seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Comparing quotes
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What preparation is included
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
