Bath resealing at your home in Netherton

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat 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. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are old sealant that looks dirty and silicone smeared on tiles.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on 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.

Netherton: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How long will it take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Netherton. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
