How we handle bath resealing in Grampound Road

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are stained silicone and gaps in the seal.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Store bottles on a shelf

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Grampound Road

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you are in Grampound Road and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Common questions in Grampound Road

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
