How we handle bath resealing in Dunball
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s mould you can’t clean out and gaps by the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Dunball and across Somerset.

How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Why it’s worth resealing in Dunball
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Dunball questions
Do you cover the whole of Somerset?
Everywhere in the UK, Dunball included. Travel is included in the price.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you work in Dunball?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Dunball from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
