About our bath resealing in Canford Magna

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Typical jobs include silicone smeared on tiles and water getting behind the bath or tray, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Resealing in Canford Magna: why it matters

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Common questions in Canford Magna

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

Everywhere in the UK, Canford Magna included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

What we are called out for in Canford Magna

Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. 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 so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

What affects the price in Canford Magna

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

What it costs 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 quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BH21 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
