How we handle bath resealing in Maiden Newton
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and old sealant that looks dirty.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Maiden Newton and across Dorset.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Let steam out after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Landlord and trade work in Maiden Newton
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Maiden Newton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Common problems we fix in Maiden Newton
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Mould you cannot clean out
- A messy previous reseal

Maiden Newton: your questions answered
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

We do. We send a technician to Maiden Newton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Maiden Newton and the rest of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Maiden Newton. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
If you’re in Maiden Newton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
