Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
FAQs for Hedge End
Are there extra charges for Hedge End?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SO30 postcode.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Hedge End included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How long does a reseal take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What else we do in Hedge End
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What affects the price in Hedge End
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
