Bath resealing at your home in Stirchley
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and black spots in the silicone, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage

How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes around two hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Common questions in Stirchley
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do you come to Stirchley?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Stirchley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
