About our bath resealing in Whalley Banks
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you’re dealing with damp near the bath and gaps in the seal, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

Resealing in Whalley Banks: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Do you need bath resealing in Whalley Banks?

- Unsealed corners
- Stained silicone
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Gaps in the seal
Before you book anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Advice
How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
