How we handle bath resealing in Blackney
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are silicone smeared on tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Blackney and across Dorset.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Blackney
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You’ll get the curing time from us, generally around a day.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

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, for the same reason.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Blackney. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
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.
