About our bath resealing in Whitchurch
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are damp near the bath and old sealant that looks dirty.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Shropshire.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- 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.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
When to call us in Whitchurch
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- A messy previous reseal
- Leaks at the edges

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Work for landlords and builders
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.
Letting agents frequently 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Whitchurch questions
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Whitchurch.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.

Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
