Bath resealing in Harbertonford without replacing anything

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include leaks at the edges and stained silicone, in shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Harbertonford and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Questions from Harbertonford

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How long does a reseal take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Harbertonford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint 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

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Harbertonford, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Give the seal a regular clean

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
