Bath resealing in West Bromwich without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about an untidy old seal and gaps in the seal.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.
Your questions about bath resealing in West Bromwich
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do you cover the entire of Sandwell?
We cover the whole UK, including West Bromwich and the rest of Sandwell. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
How long does a reseal take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Resealing in West Bromwich: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

What else we do in West Bromwich
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes about two hours for a bath.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Do you need bath resealing in West Bromwich?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
- An untidy old seal
- Stained silicone

Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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 frequently lifts.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
