Bath resealing near Langham

Bath resealing in Langham without replacing anything

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and water getting behind the bath or tray.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Langham and across Dorset.

Langham questions

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Langham?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Are there extra charges for Langham?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Normally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Common problems we fix in Langham

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Unsealed corners

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before booking

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
