Bath resealing in Hewas Water 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 many DIY jobs peel. We are frequently asked to fix water getting behind the bath or tray and an untidy old seal, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hewas Water and across Cornwall.

Hewas Water: your questions answered
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Signs you need bath resealing in Hewas Water
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Stained silicone
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- An untidy old seal

- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Other services in Hewas Water
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hewas Water as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
