Bath resealing at your home in Milborne Port
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about missing sealant behind the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Milborne Port and across Dorset.

Milborne Port questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work in Milborne Port?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Milborne Port and the rest of Dorset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Signs you need bath resealing in Milborne Port
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Common reasons people in Milborne Port contact us are:
- Mould you cannot clean out

What your quote should include

- Whether the price covers travel
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours, including clearing up.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Milborne Port
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.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
