Trusted bath resealing in Rednal

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Bath resealing in Rednal without replacing anything

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and an untidy old seal, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What affects the price in Rednal

We don’t charge extra for travel to Rednal. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

We don’t add 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.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Rednal questions

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Birmingham. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Everything repaired in place

When to call us in Rednal

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • An untidy old seal

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
