Bath resealing in Colyton without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and damp near the bath, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Colyton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
Your questions about bath resealing in Colyton
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you cover Colyton?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Colyton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Colyton
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
