Bath resealing in Tollerford, done in place

All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include missing sealant behind the taps and a messy previous reseal, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

Materials we work on in Tollerford

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

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Signs you need bath resealing in Tollerford

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Tollerford questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

We work UK-wide, so Tollerford is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Are there extra charges for Tollerford?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

What affects the price in Tollerford

We charge the same across the UK, including Tollerford. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Tollerford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why reseal now?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A fixed quote before booking
