About our bath resealing in Uploders
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and sealant that’s split or lifting, on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.

Resealing in Uploders: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DT6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we’re called out for in Uploders
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Stained silicone
- A messy previous reseal

- How changes to the job are handled

Uploders: your questions answered
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dorset.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Dorset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
