Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Lane End, Hampshire
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Lane End, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Damp near the bath
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Bath resealing in Lane End without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and silicone smeared on tiles.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Resealing in Lane End: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Common problems we fix in Lane End
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps in the seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Damp near the bath
- Old sealant that looks dirty

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lane End

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
FAQs for Lane End
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
