Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hampton Poyle, Oxfordshire
Bath resealing across Hampton Poyle and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone smeared on tiles
How we handle bath resealing in Hampton Poyle
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are gaps by the taps and black spots in the silicone.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Your questions about bath resealing in Hampton Poyle
Do you come to Hampton Poyle?
We do. Technicians travel to Hampton Poyle from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep the joints dry
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hampton Poyle, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Why it’s worth resealing in Hampton Poyle
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
