Bath resealing in Green Bank, done in place

We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are gaps by the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Green Bank and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Green Bank. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Green Bank, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Green Bank

Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Your questions about bath resealing in Green Bank

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
