Bath resealing in Falmouth without replacing anything

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges, we can typically put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Falmouth. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TR11 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

FAQs for Falmouth

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • A flexing bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Baths
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units

Landlords, agents and businesses in Falmouth

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

For anyone letting property in or around Falmouth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
