About our bath resealing in Gravelly Hill
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and stained silicone, on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the joints dry
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Birmingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Advice
FAQs for Gravelly Hill
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Signs you need bath resealing in Gravelly Hill
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Stained silicone
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- An untidy old seal
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to look after the finish
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for Gravelly Hill. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
