Bath Resealing for Frankley homes
Fixed-price bath resealing in Frankley and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Gaps in the seal
About our bath resealing in Frankley
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and a messy previous reseal, across basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
What affects the price in Frankley
There is no charge for travel to Frankley. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

- Same prices wherever you are

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the area is dry

Your questions about bath resealing in Frankley
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Do you cover Frankley?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Frankley. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
- Keep bottles off the joints
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
