Bath resealing in Fowey

About our bath resealing in Fowey

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help, on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Fowey and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hidden water damage
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Common problems we fix in Fowey

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

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

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely 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.

Is resealing worth it?

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why Fowey clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Take a look at our full price list.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about bath resealing in Fowey

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
