Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Highfield, Southampton
Fixed-price bath resealing in Highfield and the surrounding area, generally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Common problems we fix in Highfield
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Look out for any of the following:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Before you book anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Common questions in Highfield
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
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.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We will give you the curing time.
