Bath resealing in Tincleton

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

Bath resealing at your home in Tincleton

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our technicians work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured, yellow sealant and leaks at the edges.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tincleton and across Dorset.

What we are called out for in Tincleton

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Stained silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Gaps in the seal

Questions from Tincleton

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Dorset.

Do you come to Tincleton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Tincleton and the rest of Dorset. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Are there extra charges for Tincleton?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Tincleton. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you are in Tincleton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tincleton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

What happens on the day

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, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
