About our bath resealing in Dawlish Warren
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Common call-outs are for black mould in the sealant and an untidy old seal, in baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
