Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in West Heath, Birmingham

- Gaps by the taps
How we handle bath resealing in West Heath
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are an untidy old seal and leaks at the edges.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Resealing in West Heath: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Work done at your home or business
- No need to remove anything
- A year’s guarantee on all work
See our prices page.
What we’re called out for in West Heath
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

- Damp near the bath
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected

What else we do in West Heath
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Questions from West Heath
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
