Bath Resealing for Bridge Street homes
We travel to Bridge Street for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Stained silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Bath resealing at your home in Bridge Street
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. If you are dealing with gaps in the seal and black mould in the sealant, we can usually put it right, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Let steam out after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in Bridge Street
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
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 quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.
Signs you need bath resealing in Bridge Street
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Unsealed corners
- Gaps in the seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black spots in the silicone
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually do the work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
FAQs for Bridge Street
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Bridge Street. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
