Bath resealing for Blandford Forum homes

Bath resealing at your home in Blandford Forum

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are gaps in the seal and a messy previous reseal.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Blandford Forum and across Dorset.

Your questions about bath resealing in Blandford Forum

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How much does bath resealing cost in Blandford Forum?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What affects the price in Blandford Forum

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Signs you need bath resealing in Blandford Forum

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Common reasons people in Blandford Forum contact us include:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Comparing quotes

  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Why reseal now?

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Blandford Forum, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
