Bath resealing in Chilworth Old Village without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you are dealing with gaps in the seal and mould you can’t clean out, we can usually put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Chilworth Old Village and across Southampton.

What else we do in Chilworth Old Village
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Do you need bath resealing in Chilworth Old Village?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Gaps by the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chilworth Old Village use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

FAQs for Chilworth Old Village
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
