Bath Resealing for Midland homes

- Missing sealant behind the taps

Bath resealing in Midland, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for black mould in the sealant and gaps by the taps, across baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Questions from Midland
Do you come to Midland?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Midland from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Dry the seal after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
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.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

When to call us in Midland
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- Mould you cannot clean out
- A messy previous reseal
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
