What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Common problems we fix in Team Valley

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who will actually do the work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Team Valley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

FAQs for Team Valley

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How much does bath resealing cost in Team Valley?

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your NE11 postcode.

Landlord and trade work in Team Valley

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Team Valley use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Resealing in Team Valley: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
