Our bath resealing service in Torbay
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about an untidy old seal and stained silicone.
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Near you in Paignton
Typical jobs here are in homes near Sacred Heart Catholic School, Paignton Academy and Parish Church of Christ Church and the streets around them. There’s a railway station in Paignton itself: Paignton station. A little further out are The Real Crime Museum (2.4 miles north-east) and Berry Pomeroy Castle (3 miles west). For a walk, there’s Occombe Valley Woods.
How the damage happens
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- A messy previous reseal
Repair or replace?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
For anyone letting property in or around Torbay, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Common questions in Torbay
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
