Landlord and trade work in Barton Hill
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barton Hill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How we handle bath resealing in Barton Hill
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and a messy previous reseal, across shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Barton Hill
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
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.
What affects the price in Barton Hill
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Barton Hill
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you work in Barton Hill?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Barton Hill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Why it’s worth resealing in Barton Hill
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
