How we handle bath resealing in Bassetts Pole
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles, across shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Birmingham.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Bassetts Pole: your questions answered
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time, typically around a day.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you cover the whole of Birmingham?
All of Birmingham, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Signs you need bath resealing in Bassetts Pole
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Before booking anyone
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the room is protected while they work
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow around two hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
