How we handle bath resealing in Barton-under-Needwood

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 resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath, we can help.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Barton-under-Needwood and across Staffordshire.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Why reseal now?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

FAQs for Barton-under-Needwood

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?

The entire UK, including all of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally around 24 hours.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
