Bath resealing at your home in Winwick

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are water getting behind the bath or tray and stained silicone.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Do you need bath resealing in Winwick?

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black spots in the silicone

Our hiring checklist

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your WA2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Questions from Winwick

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Winwick and the rest of Warrington. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
