Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Bath resealing in Hillfields, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about damp near the bath and discoloured, yellow sealant.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
If you are in Hillfields and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Hillfields questions
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How long does a reseal take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you cover Hillfields?
We do. Technicians travel to Hillfields from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Hillfields clients choose us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What we cannot put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Signs you need bath resealing in Hillfields
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
