Bath resealing in Dorrington without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for Dorrington. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Dorrington
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Common reasons people in Dorrington contact us include:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
- An untidy old seal
- Mould you can’t clean out
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dorrington use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Questions from Dorrington
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Are there extra charges for Dorrington?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How much does bath resealing cost in Dorrington?
We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
