Bath resealing at your home in Corfe
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths, and people most often call us about leaks at the edges and unsealed corners.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in Corfe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Corfe
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in Corfe
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Corfe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Corfe: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you work in Corfe?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Corfe and the rest of Somerset. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
