Southdown: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Are there extra charges for Southdown?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
About our bath resealing in Southdown
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What bath resealing costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Southdown. The price comes down to:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Southdown. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Same prices wherever you are
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
