Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Atherfield Green, Isle of Wight
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Atherfield Green, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- A messy previous reseal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Unsealed corners
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
How we handle bath resealing in Atherfield Green
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most often call us about gaps in the seal and damp near the bath.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
What affects the price in Atherfield Green
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
FAQs for Atherfield Green
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Why it’s worth resealing in Atherfield Green
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
