Bath resealing in Blackbrook without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Blackbrook and across Staffordshire.

FAQs for Blackbrook
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Blackbrook. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

When to call us in Blackbrook
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps by the taps
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
