Bath resealing at your home in West End
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and black mould in the sealant.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently 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.
Common problems we fix in West End
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Stained silicone
What to look for in a quote
- How to look after the finish
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Landlords, agents and businesses in West End
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
West End: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in West End.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you come to West End?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to West End. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

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

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
