Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Driffold, Birmingham
Fixed-price bath resealing in Driffold and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Bath resealing in Driffold without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and black spots in the silicone, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Driffold. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- No extra charge for your area

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Do you need bath resealing in Driffold?
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Stained silicone
What your quote should include

What bath resealing costs
There’s no charge for travel to Driffold. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Your questions about bath resealing in Driffold
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you come to Driffold?
We do. We send a technician to Driffold for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
