Bath Resealing in Blackrock
Bath resealing in Blackrock without the cost of replacing. Send us photos for a fixed quote, then book a visit.
- A messy previous reseal
- Stained silicone
- Mould you can’t clean out
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Bath resealing in Blackrock, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for old sealant that looks dirty and gaps by the taps, across baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
Somewhere like Blackrock, older buildings can move slightly, and that splits sealant. We fill the bath before sealing so the joint lasts.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Blackrock and across Bath and North East Somerset.

Blackrock: your questions answered
Do you take on commercial work in Blackrock?
Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Tell us about access and timings for the building.
I let a flat near Keynsham station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, landlords and agents book us regularly.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
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 happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again. For a rural address like Blackrock, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the bath resealing comes with us in one trip.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space clear if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Common problems we fix in Blackrock
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Look out for any of the following:
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
If you manage a building such as St Bernadette Catholic Secondary School, we repair changing rooms and washrooms as well as work in homes.

What else we do in Blackrock
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Older homes around Blackrock may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. A repair keeps the original.
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material 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.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Fixed quotes from pictures
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blackrock as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What bath resealing costs
There’s no area surcharge for Blackrock. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
