How we handle bath resealing in Sopley
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for silicone coming away from the tiles and stained silicone, across baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- 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
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Sopley: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

What a repair cannot fix
