Bath resealing for Broadwindsor homes

What we cannot put right

Bath resealing at your home in Broadwindsor

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s black mould in the sealant and stained silicone, we can help, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Broadwindsor and across Dorset.

How we price bath resealing

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we are called out for in Broadwindsor

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Leaks at the edges
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

FAQs for Broadwindsor

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT8 postcode.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
