About our bath resealing in Greenhead
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We’re often asked to fix an untidy old seal and water getting behind the bath or tray, in basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Your questions about bath resealing in Greenhead
How long does a reseal take?
Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you work in Greenhead?
We do. Technicians travel to Greenhead from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Greenhead. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Any details about the material
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Greenhead
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
