Why it’s worth resealing in Stretton
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
How we price bath resealing
We do not charge extra for travel to Stretton. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stretton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Common problems we fix in Stretton
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Stained silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What preparation is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Stretton questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time, typically around a day.
