Bath resealing at your home in Newstreet Lane

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and damp near the bath.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How we price bath resealing

We charge the same across the UK, including Newstreet Lane. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newstreet Lane

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Why it’s worth resealing in Newstreet Lane

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Are there extra charges for Newstreet Lane?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Newstreet Lane?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
