Trusted bath resealing in Higher Clovelly

Bath resealing in Higher Clovelly without replacing anything

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can usually put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Shower trays & enclosures

How we price bath resealing

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Higher Clovelly. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why reseal now?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Higher Clovelly: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are there extra charges for Higher Clovelly?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What areas do you cover?

All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Higher Clovelly

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • An untidy old seal
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Comparing quotes

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included

Landlords, agents and businesses in Higher Clovelly

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
