Bath resealing in Godmanstone

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Bath resealing at your home in Godmanstone

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with gaps in the seal and missing sealant behind the taps, we can help.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Air the room after use
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Common questions in Godmanstone

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Dorset.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Godmanstone?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You’ll get the curing time from us.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Landlord and trade work in Godmanstone

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We don’t 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.

Take a look at our pricing.

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Do you need bath resealing in Godmanstone?

Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
