Book bath resealing in Higher Ansty

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.

Bath resealing in Higher Ansty without replacing anything

Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. If you’re dealing with an untidy old seal and gaps by the taps, we can typically put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Higher Ansty. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Work done at your home or business

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths

What your bath or shower is made of matters

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.

What we are called out for in Higher Ansty

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Stained silicone
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Air the room after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

FAQs for Higher Ansty

Do you work in Higher Ansty?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Higher Ansty and the rest of Dorset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
