Bath resealing in Hindsford without replacing anything
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and gaps by the taps, we can typically put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hindsford
For anyone letting property in or around Hindsford, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
Resealing in Hindsford: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Hindsford. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A photo taken from further back

Common questions in Hindsford
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are there extra charges for Hindsford?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
