About our bath resealing in Buckfastleigh
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are leaks at the edges and gaps in the seal.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most clients in Buckfastleigh get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths

Questions from Buckfastleigh
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Devon.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
