About our bath resealing in Coppits Hill
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are black spots in the silicone and a messy previous reseal.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coppits Hill as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Coppits Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Coppits Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Coppits Hill: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you cover the whole of Somerset?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
