Resealing in Ilminster: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Everything repaired in place
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No extra charge for your area

How we handle bath resealing in Ilminster
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We’re frequently asked to fix black mould in the sealant and leaks at the edges, across baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Air the room after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ilminster as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How long does a reseal take?
