Bath resealing at your home in Brockhurst
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. Typical jobs include mould you can’t clean out and gaps in the seal, across basins & vanity units, wet rooms and baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Your questions about bath resealing in Brockhurst
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Brockhurst?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your S45 postcode.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We will give you the curing time.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
There’s 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Brockhurst, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What we are called out for in Brockhurst
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What to look for in a quote

Landlords, agents and businesses in Brockhurst
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brockhurst use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
