How we handle bath resealing in Charmouth
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. If you are dealing with gaps in the seal and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can generally put it right, on baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Resealing in Charmouth: 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Common problems we fix in Charmouth
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- A messy previous reseal
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
- If travel is included in the price
- How to look after the finish
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including Charmouth. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Landlord and trade work in Charmouth
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charmouth as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Your questions about bath resealing in Charmouth
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
