Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Bradpole, Dorset
Our technicians come to Bradpole for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Damp near the bath
- An untidy old seal
Common problems we fix in Bradpole
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Leaks at the edges
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- What preparation is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again

The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DT6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Questions from Bradpole
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How much does bath resealing cost in Bradpole?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
How long will it take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
What affects the price in Bradpole
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
