About our bath resealing in Grove
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. Most jobs take a couple of hours. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and silicone coming away from the tiles.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What else we do in Grove
When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
Why it’s worth resealing in Grove
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures

What we’re called out for in Grove
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Black mould in the sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Leaks at the edges

FAQs for Grove
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you work in Grove?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Grove and the rest of Dorset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
