About our bath resealing in Lightwood
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone smeared on tiles and damp near the bath.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Advice
Questions from Lightwood
Why does mould come back so fast?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover the whole of Stoke-on-Trent?
We work UK-wide, so Lightwood is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How long does a reseal take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What affects the price in Lightwood
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lightwood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Different materials, different repairs
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, once the joint is completely dry.
What we’re called out for in Lightwood
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
- An untidy old seal
- Unsealed corners
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day
Landlord and trade work in Lightwood
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lightwood use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
