Bath resealing in Dibden Purlieu

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Bath resealing in Dibden Purlieu, done in place

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. If you are dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and gaps by the taps, we can typically put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Common problems we fix in Dibden Purlieu

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 usually cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Dibden Purlieu questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

How much does bath resealing cost in Dibden Purlieu?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SO45 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How we price bath resealing

There is no charge for travel to Dibden Purlieu. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Dibden Purlieu. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
