Bath Resealing in Bower Heath
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Bower Heath, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Black mould in the sealant
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps by the taps
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How we handle bath resealing in Bower Heath
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about black spots in the silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Common problems we fix in Bower Heath
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps in the seal
- Gaps by the taps
Comparing quotes
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Air the room after use
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What affects the price in Bower Heath
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you are in Bower Heath and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
