Bath Resealing for Reed homes
Bath resealing in and around Reed: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Damp near the bath
- Stained silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How we handle bath resealing in Reed
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What else we do in Reed
What affects the price in Reed
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

Why it’s worth resealing in Reed
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Common problems we fix in Reed
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find more damage
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.

Advice
Common questions in Reed
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are there extra charges for Reed?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How long does a reseal take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Reed?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you come to Reed?
We do. Technicians travel to Reed from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
