When a repair isn’t the answer

Bath resealing in Brookgreen without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you’re dealing with an untidy old seal and old sealant that looks dirty, we can generally put it right.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Resealing in Brookgreen: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When to call us in Brookgreen

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • A messy previous reseal

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How to care for the finish
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Brookgreen

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

FAQs for Brookgreen

Can new silicone go over old?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What areas do you cover?

All of Isle of Wight, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
