What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
How we handle bath resealing in Higher Kingcombe
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We are often asked to fix unsealed corners and black spots in the silicone, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Higher Kingcombe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Higher Kingcombe
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
