When to call us in Merley
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Use the extractor fan
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Work for landlords and builders
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 matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
