Bath Resealing for Highoak homes
Bath resealing across Highoak and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry

How we handle bath resealing in Highoak
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and black spots in the silicone, we can typically put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
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 reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlord and trade work in Highoak
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often 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 many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Highoak questions
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
How much does bath resealing cost in Highoak?
We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
- Keep the joints dry
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
