Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Alderney, Poole
Bath resealing in and around Alderney: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Gaps by the taps
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps in the seal
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Bath resealing in Alderney without replacing anything
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Typical jobs include a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Alderney as everywhere else we work.

Common questions in Alderney
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Alderney

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble 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 normally the cheaper route.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
