Bath resealing at your home in Gentleshaw
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and unsealed corners, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gentleshaw use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Air the room after use
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Gentleshaw questions
How long before I can shower?
Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?
All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do you come to Gentleshaw?
We do. We send a technician to Gentleshaw for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Are there extra charges for Gentleshaw?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
Common problems we fix in Gentleshaw
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps by the taps
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
