Bath resealing in Hinton St Mary without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and a messy previous reseal, across baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Hinton St Mary

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

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Stained silicone
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hinton St Mary as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Resealing in Hinton St Mary: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
