About our bath resealing in Hamworthy

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset.

FAQs for Hamworthy

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

How long will it take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Hamworthy included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you cover Hamworthy?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hamworthy for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Hamworthy, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why it’s worth resealing in Hamworthy

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Hamworthy customers choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

What bath resealing costs

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hamworthy. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Get a quote

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
