About our bath resealing in South Hinksey
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, across kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common questions in South Hinksey
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in South Hinksey.
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
Across the UK, so South Hinksey is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
