Bath resealing in Dosthill without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and a messy previous reseal, we can typically put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why it’s worth resealing in Dosthill

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow around two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price bath resealing

You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Common questions in Dosthill

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Dosthill is covered. Prices do not change with location.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Air the room after use
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
