Bath resealing for Tolpuddle homes

How we handle bath resealing in Tolpuddle

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We’re often asked to fix black mould in the sealant and silicone smeared on tiles, in baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Tolpuddle

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Tolpuddle and the rest of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Tolpuddle, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Hidden water damage
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Common problems we fix in Tolpuddle

Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Damp near the bath
  • Black spots in the silicone

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Tolpuddle

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tolpuddle 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 bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Tolpuddle. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
