Bath resealing at your home in Walton-le-Dale

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are gaps in the seal and a messy previous reseal.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Walton-le-Dale and across Lancashire.

Resealing in Walton-le-Dale: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

See our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Dry the seal after bathing

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

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

What affects the price in Walton-le-Dale

We do not charge extra for travel to Walton-le-Dale. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Walton-le-Dale

For anyone letting property in or around Walton-le-Dale, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Walton-le-Dale questions

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
