Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Do you need bath resealing in Birch Green?
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Leaks at the edges

How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can

Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Birch Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

Birch Green questions
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Do you cover Birch Green?
We do. We send a technician to Birch Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long does a reseal take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep bottles off the joints
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
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.
