How we handle bath resealing in Woodlands
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are stained silicone and black mould in the sealant.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Signs you need bath resealing in Woodlands
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Damp near the bath

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

FAQs for Woodlands
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Woodlands and the rest of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long does resealing take?
Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Air the room after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Woodlands
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
