About our bath resealing in Smith's Green
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Smith's Green as everywhere else we work.

What else we do in Smith's Green
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Smith's Green
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Smith's Green: your questions answered
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Smith's Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive

- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
