About our bath resealing in Hillstreet
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We’re frequently asked to fix stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out, across baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For a price in Hillstreet, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What else we do in Hillstreet
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Landlord and trade work in Hillstreet
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Hillstreet, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Hillstreet
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
The things customers normally mention when they call are:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps in the seal
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Your questions about bath resealing in Hillstreet
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
How long does resealing take?
Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
