About our bath resealing in Gwinear
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges, we can help.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Your questions about bath resealing in Gwinear
Do you cover Gwinear?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Gwinear. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gwinear use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
When to call us in Gwinear
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black spots in the silicone
- Unsealed corners

What else we do in Gwinear
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
