Bath resealing at your home in Buckland Newton
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re frequently asked to fix gaps in the seal and an untidy old seal, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Buckland Newton, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Landlord and trade work in Buckland Newton
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What else we do in Buckland Newton
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
