Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Gwinear Downs
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Open a window after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Keep the joints dry
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What affects the price in Gwinear Downs

Questions from Gwinear Downs
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you come to Gwinear Downs?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Gwinear Downs from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You’ll get the curing time from us, typically around a day.
Do you need bath resealing in Gwinear Downs?
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

Resealing in Gwinear Downs: why it matters

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
