Bath Resealing for Durlston homes
Fixed-price bath resealing in Durlston and the surrounding area, generally in one visit.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- A messy previous reseal
- Unsealed corners
How we price bath resealing
There is no area surcharge for Durlston. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Bath resealing in Durlston, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about silicone smeared on tiles and black spots in the silicone.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Durlston
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- A messy previous reseal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps by the taps
- Stained silicone
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
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, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Your questions about bath resealing in Durlston
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How much does bath resealing cost in Durlston?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Durlston, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
