Bath resealing at your home in Whaley Thorns
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We are often asked to fix leaks at the edges and black mould in the sealant, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Common questions in Whaley Thorns
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you work in Whaley Thorns?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Whaley Thorns from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Whaley Thorns, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
