Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hoggington, Wiltshire
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Hoggington, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Damp near the bath
- An untidy old seal
- Mould you cannot clean out
About our bath resealing in Hoggington
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are an untidy old seal and silicone coming away from the tiles.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire.

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

What we are called out for in Hoggington
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Look out for these signs:
- Gaps by the taps
- Gaps in the seal
- A messy previous reseal
- Black spots in the silicone

FAQs for Hoggington
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you work in Hoggington?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Hoggington and the rest of Wiltshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What areas do you cover?
All of Wiltshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park

How we price bath resealing
We do not charge extra for travel to Hoggington. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Why it’s worth resealing in Hoggington
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
