Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hinton, Dorset
Fixed-price bath resealing in Hinton and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Gaps by the taps
- An untidy old seal
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Dry the seal after bathing
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Bath resealing in Hinton without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can normally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

When to call us in Hinton
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- A messy previous reseal
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Sealant that is split or lifting
Comparing quotes
- Who turns up on the day
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How changes to the job are handled
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
