Resealing in Galton Village: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One visit for most repairs

Bath resealing at your home in Galton Village
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and mould you can’t clean out.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Galton Village and across Sandwell.

Do you need bath resealing in Galton Village?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Gaps by the taps
- Stained silicone
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps in the seal

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Galton Village questions
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What bath resealing costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Galton Village. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the joints dry
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Can I fix it myself?
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 a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
