Bath resealing in Kilkhampton without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and the jobs we see most are black spots in the silicone and unsealed corners.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Your questions about bath resealing in Kilkhampton
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How long does resealing take?
Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Kilkhampton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kilkhampton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Resealing in Kilkhampton: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, 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.

Signs you need bath resealing in Kilkhampton
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A messy previous reseal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal
What your quote should include
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the price covers travel
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How we price bath resealing
We do not charge extra for travel to Kilkhampton. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EX23 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
