Bath Resealing across Sandwell

Bath resealing across Sandwell: what to expect

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and damp near the bath, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Around West Bromwich

In West Bromwich, that means homes near Dartmouth Park, St Mary Magdalene CofE Voluntary Controlled Primary School and The Phoenix Collegiate and the streets around them. Also close by are The Phoenix Collegiate (within half a mile north-west) and Church of All Saints (within half a mile east). For rail, the closest station is Tame Bridge Parkway station, roughly 1.3 miles north-east. Further afield, we also cover the area around Walsall Castle (3.4 miles north) and Sandwell General Hospital (0.5 miles south). Not far away are Sot's Hole Local Nature Reserve and Forge Mill Lake.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
