Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sherborne St John. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms

What bath resealing costs

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you’re in Sherborne St John and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Your questions about bath resealing in Sherborne St John

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We will give you the curing time.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Air the room after use
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Signs you need bath resealing in Sherborne St John

In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An untidy old seal
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sherborne St John

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
