Bath Resealing in Black Dog
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homes and businesses in Black Dog and across Devon. Send photos for a free, fixed quote.
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Black spots in the silicone
- A messy previous reseal
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Bath resealing at your home in Black Dog
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and black spots in the silicone.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

FAQs for Black Dog
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are there extra charges for Black Dog?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you cover Black Dog?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Black Dog. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
Most customers in Black Dog get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Black Dog. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Work done at your home or business
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Let steam out after showers
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
