FAQs for Durrington
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us, typically around a day.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
How much does bath resealing cost in Durrington?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BN13 postcode.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Bath resealing in Durrington without replacing anything
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and an untidy old seal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Durrington

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
