Bath resealing in Ilsington, done in place
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed, with mould-resistant sanitary silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about stained silicone and a messy previous reseal.
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.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for around two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Can I fix it myself?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about bath resealing in Ilsington
What does bath resealing cost?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you cover Ilsington?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Ilsington and the rest of Devon. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time, normally around a day.
What we are called out for in Ilsington
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- A messy previous reseal

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Ilsington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What affects the price in Ilsington
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Ilsington get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
