Bath resealing at your home in Charlton Horethorne
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re frequently asked to fix a messy previous reseal and silicone coming away from the tiles, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charlton Horethorne as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Other services in Charlton Horethorne
Do you need bath resealing in Charlton Horethorne?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Unsealed corners
- Stained silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Black mould in the sealant
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
- How to look after the finish
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
