Bath resealing at your home in Church Town

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners, in wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Church Town

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How we price bath resealing

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Church Town. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you’re in Church Town and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we are called out for in Church Town

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Damp near the bath

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Air the room after use

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

FAQs for Church Town

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Can new silicone go over old?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you cover Church Town?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Church Town for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How much does bath resealing cost in Church Town?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
