How we handle bath resealing in Stradey
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and missing sealant behind the taps, in baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Stradey
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stradey. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Common problems we fix in Stradey
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Stained silicone
- Damp near the bath

FAQs for Stradey
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Why it’s worth resealing in Stradey
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stradey as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep the joints dry
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Open a window after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
