The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hamstead
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Hamstead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Your questions about bath resealing in Hamstead
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Birmingham.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Hamstead?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your B42 postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Hamstead

How we price bath resealing
There is no charge for travel to Hamstead. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
