Bath resealing in Balls Green without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s gaps in the seal and an untidy old seal, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
