Bath Resealing in Manchester
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Manchester, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Yellowed or stained mastic
- Black mould in the sealant
- Messy, uneven old sealant
How we handle bath resealing in Manchester
We seal baths while they’re full of water, so the new bead isn’t stretched the first time you use it. We remove all the old sealant first, since new sealant won’t stick to old silicone. Our technicians work on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are yellowed or stained mastic and sealant that has split or peeled.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Questions from Manchester
How long before I can shower?
Normally after about 24 hours, depending on the product. We’ll tell you when we finish.
What guarantee do I get?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses in Manchester?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes, usually. The technician needs access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Should I repair or replace?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and clean up before we leave.
When can I use it again after the repair?
Usually by the next day, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.

Why it’s worth resealing in Manchester
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

When to call us in Manchester
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. Over time it splits, peels or turns black.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Messy, uneven old sealant
- Gaps letting water behind the bath
- Sealant that has split or peeled
