Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Winnington, Cheshire West and Chester
We travel to Winnington for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Gaps by the taps
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- A messy previous reseal
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Winnington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we handle bath resealing in Winnington
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and people most often call us about silicone smeared on tiles and gaps in the seal.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Questions from Winnington
How long does a reseal take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Winnington included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
What we’re called out for in Winnington
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Gaps by the taps
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- What prep work is covered
- How your room will be protected
How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
