Why it’s worth resealing in Woodbank

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our prices page.

Bath resealing in Woodbank, done in place

We reseal baths with them filled with water, 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 discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Woodbank and across Cheshire West and Chester.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Common questions in Woodbank

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you come to Woodbank?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Woodbank for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Why does mould come back so fast?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

What does bath resealing cost?

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What we’re called out for in Woodbank

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal

Before you book anyone

  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, 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. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Air the room after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

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

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
