Bath Resealing for Bickenhall homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Bickenhall. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Damp near the bath
- Black spots in the silicone
- Sealant that is split or lifting
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How we handle bath resealing in Bickenhall
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and a messy previous reseal, in basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- A fixed quote before booking
- Work done at your home or business
See our prices page.
What affects the price in Bickenhall
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Give the seal a regular clean
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Bickenhall: your questions answered
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. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours, tidy-up included.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
For a price in Bickenhall, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Work for landlords and builders

When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
