About our bath resealing in Belchalwell Street

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and black spots in the silicone.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Belchalwell Street and across Dorset.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Belchalwell Street. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DT11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Belchalwell Street

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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Do you need bath resealing in Belchalwell Street?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners
  • An untidy old seal

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How to care for the finish

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Hidden water damage

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
