Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Ridge, Dorset
Bath resealing for Ridge, without a refit. Get a fixed price from your pictures, then we come to you.
- Stained silicone
- Unsealed corners
- An untidy old seal
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How we handle bath resealing in Ridge
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and damp near the bath, we can help, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes about two hours for a bath.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

- Baths

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Ridge. What changes the price is:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Do you need bath resealing in Ridge?
Sealant doesn’t 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.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- A messy previous reseal
- Unsealed corners
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the room is protected while they work
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
