Bath resealing at your home in Isle of Wight
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include silicone coming away from the tiles and gaps by the taps, in basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Signs you need bath resealing
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Leaks at the edges
- An untidy old seal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Stained silicone
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repairing versus replacing
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive.

Isle of Wight: your questions answered
Are there extra charges for Isle of Wight?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
