Bath Resealing for Knightwood homes
We travel to Knightwood for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Stained silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Bath resealing in Knightwood, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and water getting behind the bath or tray.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SO53 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Hampshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Signs you need bath resealing in Knightwood
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black spots in the silicone

Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Questions from Knightwood
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
