DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
When to call us in Charlton Marshall
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Gaps by the taps
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- A messy previous reseal

Your questions about bath resealing in Charlton Marshall
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Dorset.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

How we price bath resealing
There is no charge for travel to Charlton Marshall. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hidden water damage
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
