Bath resealing in Burton Bradstock

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead. Somewhere as small as Burton Bradstock, access is generally the main thing to plan. Once we are there, the bath resealing works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

Bath resealing in Burton Bradstock, done in place

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and unsealed corners.

In older homes in a village like Burton Bradstock, walls and floors can move a little, which is hard on sealant. We seal baths full of water so the joint is at its widest.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

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.

When to call us in Burton Bradstock

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

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal

Questions to ask before booking

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Air the room after use
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

FAQs for Burton Bradstock

Do you cover villages like Burton Bradstock?

Yes, we do: Burton Bradstock is covered like any town. Just mention any tricky access.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How long will it take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What affects the price in Burton Bradstock

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole 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 to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms
