Bath Resealing for Amblecote homes
We travel to Amblecote for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Damp near the bath
- Black spots in the silicone
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Bath resealing in Amblecote, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and silicone coming away from the tiles, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Do you need bath resealing in Amblecote?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps by the taps
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
- Aftercare advice
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
