Bath resealing in Peel Common without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and common reasons people contact us are leaks at the edges and gaps in the seal.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, 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 by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Peel Common. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Details of any past repairs
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep the joints dry
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
When to call us in Peel Common
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps

Landlord and trade work in Peel Common
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
