How we handle bath resealing in Colbost
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Related 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What else we do in Colbost
Common questions in Colbost
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you work in Colbost?
We do. Technicians travel to Colbost from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How much does bath resealing cost in Colbost?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
