Trusted bath resealing in Golant

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Bath resealing in Golant, done in place

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are stained silicone and leaks at the edges.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

What bath resealing costs

There’s no charge for travel to Golant. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Golant. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Golant, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we are called out for in Golant

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damp near the bath
  • A messy previous reseal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Golant: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?

Everywhere in the UK, Golant included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Golant

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

The process

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

  • A flexing bath
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
