Bath resealing in Lower Burgate, done in place

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, in basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Lower Burgate

No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

The things clients normally mention when they call are:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lower Burgate. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Resealing in Lower Burgate: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Lower Burgate clients choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down 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’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
