Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

FAQs for Gilbertstone

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Are there extra charges for Gilbertstone?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What does bath resealing cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Gilbertstone and the rest of Birmingham. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

DIY kit or professional 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Resealing in Gilbertstone: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our prices page.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gilbertstone

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Birmingham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

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.

Signs you need bath resealing in Gilbertstone

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if they find more damage
