Trusted bath resealing in Worsthorne

Bath resealing in Worsthorne, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with unsealed corners and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

Worsthorne questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

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

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Common problems we fix in Worsthorne

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Stained silicone
  • Mould you can’t clean out

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

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

Materials we work on in Worsthorne

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
