Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Loggerheads, Shropshire
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Loggerheads, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- An untidy old seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
How we handle bath resealing in Loggerheads
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We’re often asked to fix black spots in the silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Loggerheads and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix.

What we’re called out for in Loggerheads
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Stained silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles

Loggerheads: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
How long does resealing take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What bath resealing costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you’re in Loggerheads and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
