Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Cam, Gloucestershire
Bath resealing across Cam and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps in the seal
- Gaps by the taps
How we handle bath resealing in Cam
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We’re frequently asked to fix black spots in the silicone and a messy previous reseal, across kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hidden water damage
- A flexing bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Advice
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlord and trade work in Cam
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Cam, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Common questions in Cam
Why does mould come back so fast?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover Cam?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Cam from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
