Bath resealing at your home in The Hummicks

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are frequently asked to fix gaps in the seal and discoloured, yellow sealant, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in The Hummicks and across Hampshire.

The Hummicks: your questions answered

How long does a reseal take?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in The Hummicks?

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your SO42 postcode.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Resealing in The Hummicks: why it matters

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Hummicks

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Hummicks use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays
