Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Harborne, Birmingham
We travel to Harborne for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
How we handle bath resealing in Harborne
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are discoloured, yellow sealant and missing sealant behind the taps.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
FAQs for Harborne
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
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 tell you when the room can be used again.
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.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Harborne?
We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your B32 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
