Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Thames Ditton, Surrey

Bath resealing in Thames Ditton, done in place
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. If you are dealing with black spots in the silicone and unsealed corners, we can normally put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
FAQs for Thames Ditton
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you come to Thames Ditton?
We do. Technicians travel to Thames Ditton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When to call us in Thames Ditton
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you can’t clean out
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you are in Thames Ditton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
