Bath Resealing for Ladywood homes
Local bath resealing for Ladywood: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.

How we handle bath resealing in Ladywood
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
When to call us in Ladywood
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A messy previous reseal
- Damp near the bath
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
FAQs for Ladywood

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How much does bath resealing cost in Ladywood?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take around two hours.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
