Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Harrowbarrow, Cornwall
Bath resealing in and around Harrowbarrow: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- A messy previous reseal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Bath resealing in Harrowbarrow without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are frequently asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and mould you can’t clean out, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Same prices wherever you are
- No need to remove anything
Take a look at our pricing.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Common questions in Harrowbarrow
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How much does bath resealing cost in Harrowbarrow?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Signs you need bath resealing in Harrowbarrow
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps in the seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find more damage
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price covers travel
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed 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.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Open a window after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
