How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Bath resealing in Birchmoor without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and unsealed corners, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Birchmoor: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work in Birchmoor?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Birchmoor and the rest of Staffordshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?

The whole UK, including all of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

What bath resealing costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Do you need bath resealing in Birchmoor?

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

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