Bath Resealing in Dimson
We travel to Dimson for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
Bath resealing in Dimson, done in place
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We’re often asked to fix an untidy old seal and discoloured, yellow sealant, across kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
What we’re called out for in Dimson

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Black mould in the sealant
- An untidy old seal
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Stained silicone

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in Dimson
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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Work done at your home or business
- Same prices wherever you are
- Most jobs done in one visit

Your questions about bath resealing in Dimson
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Dimson. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are there extra charges for Dimson?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time, normally around a day.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Dimson

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
