How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you are in Melcombe Regis and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
About our bath resealing in Melcombe Regis
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about stained silicone and mould you can’t clean out.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Signs you need bath resealing in Melcombe Regis
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Look out for these signs:
- An untidy old seal
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Old sealant that looks dirty

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Your questions about bath resealing in Melcombe Regis
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How much does bath resealing cost in Melcombe Regis?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT4 postcode.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.

What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
