Resealing in Buckland in the Moor: why it matters
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Bath resealing in Buckland in the Moor, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include missing sealant behind the taps and a messy previous reseal, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

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, to open the joint fully.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Buckland in the Moor
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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 pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Questions from Buckland in the Moor
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Are there extra charges for Buckland in the Moor?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
