About our bath resealing in Goonhavern

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s damp near the bath and stained silicone, we can usually put it right.

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

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the entire UK

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  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, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

What affects the price in Goonhavern

We do not charge extra for travel to Goonhavern. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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 we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Goonhavern: your questions answered

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cornwall.

Do you come to Goonhavern?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Goonhavern and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

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

How long does a reseal take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Goonhavern?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Air the room after use

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Goonhavern

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A flexing bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
