How we handle bath resealing in Withington

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We are often asked to fix a messy previous reseal and old sealant that looks dirty, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Withington

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How long before I can shower?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Related advice

Common problems we fix in Withington

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
