About our bath resealing in Yardley

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Yardley

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Birmingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What affects the price in Yardley

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Yardley, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Common questions in Yardley

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Yardley?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Birmingham, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Are there extra charges for Yardley?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Signs you need bath resealing in Yardley

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Gaps in the seal

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before booking

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.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

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.
