Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Redditch, Worcestershire
Bath resealing across Redditch and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps in the seal
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
How we handle bath resealing in Redditch
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Common problems we fix in Redditch
Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Gaps in the seal
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Gaps by the taps
- Leaks at the edges
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
Landlord and trade work in Redditch
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Air the room after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Redditch questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
