How we handle bath resealing in Oldbury

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. If you are dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can usually put it right, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything

See our pricing.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oldbury use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in Oldbury

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Oldbury. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What we’re called out for in Oldbury

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work

Common questions in Oldbury

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How long does resealing take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How much does bath resealing cost in Oldbury?

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

What we can’t put right

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

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Open a window after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

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.
