Bath Resealing for Estover homes
Bath resealing in Estover without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, then we come to you.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we handle bath resealing in Estover
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. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal, we can usually put it right, on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Let steam out after showers
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
When to call us in Estover
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Leaks at the edges
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps in the seal

What affects the price in Estover
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Estover
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you cover the entire of Plymouth?
All of Plymouth, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Estover. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
