Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Winterley. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A flexing bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Why reseal now?
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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Winterley questions
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep the joints dry
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for 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.
- 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, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
