Bath Resealing for Erdington homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Erdington, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Stained silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
What your bath or shower is made of matters
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.
Bath resealing at your home in Erdington
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and a messy previous reseal, we can typically put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Places near Erdington

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Your questions about bath resealing in Erdington
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are there extra charges for Erdington?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Do you come to Erdington?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Erdington. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How much does bath resealing cost in Erdington?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Erdington. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Erdington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Let steam out after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
