Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Bath resealing at your home in St John's
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and missing sealant behind the taps, across kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Worcestershire.

St John's: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is my repair covered?

When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover the whole of Worcestershire?
All of Worcestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Baths

Signs you need bath resealing in St John's
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
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Unsealed corners
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Landlord and trade work in St John's
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Worcestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What else we do in St John's
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Why it’s worth resealing in St John's
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
