Bath resealing at your home in Marston Green
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you’re dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and mould you can’t clean out, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in Marston Green
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. 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 leave the room clean.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Why it’s worth resealing in Marston Green
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job.
Do you need bath resealing in Marston Green?
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Look out for any of the following:
- Stained silicone
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps by the taps
- Leaks at the edges
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Solihull and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
