Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Burstock, Dorset

- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Burstock: your questions answered
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
What areas do you cover?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Generally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Bath resealing at your home in Burstock
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most frequently call us about damp near the bath and unsealed corners.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Resealing in Burstock: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No need to remove anything

What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray

When to call us in Burstock
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Gaps by the taps
- Damp near the bath
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps in the seal
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
