How we handle bath resealing in Dinnington
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and black mould in the sealant, across basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

Signs you need bath resealing in Dinnington
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps by the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Mould you can’t clean out
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Who will actually do the work
- How your room will be protected
What affects the price in Dinnington
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Dinnington questions
How much does bath resealing cost in Dinnington?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your TA17 postcode.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Resealing in Dinnington: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
