Bath resealing at your home in Gosport
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Common call-outs are for silicone coming away from the tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Do you need bath resealing in Gosport?
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Common reasons people in Gosport contact us are:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Gosport
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you come to Gosport?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Gosport for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
