About our bath resealing in Watersheddings
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and damp near the bath.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hollow or loose tiles

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common problems we fix in Watersheddings
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps in the seal
Comparing quotes

Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
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.
Your questions about bath resealing in Watersheddings
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What areas do you cover?
All of Oldham, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
