- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- A messy previous reseal
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
About our bath resealing in Gunn
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our technicians work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are discoloured, yellow sealant and unsealed corners.
In a village like Gunn, walls and floors in older homes are rarely perfectly straight, which makes a neat, lasting seal more important.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Gunn as everywhere else we work.

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on. Somewhere like Gunn needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring everything needed for the bath resealing, so there is no second trip.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When to call us in Gunn
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal
Rented homes near Barnstaple station (about 4.9 miles west) change hands frequently, and repairing baths and showers between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

Why it’s worth resealing in Gunn
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. In an older home in a village like Gunn, replacing a bath or shower can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Fixed quotes from pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One price list for the whole UK
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Yes. Send photos and the address, and we will quote.
