Bath resealing in Dunchideock without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Dunchideock
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When to call us in Dunchideock
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black spots in the silicone
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How your room will be protected
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who turns up on the day
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Why it’s worth resealing in Dunchideock
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
