Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Knowle, Devon
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Knowle, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Unsealed corners
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Bath resealing in Knowle without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are water getting behind the bath or tray and black mould in the sealant.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Knowle
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What we’re called out for in Knowle
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black spots in the silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone smeared on tiles
What to look for in a quote
- How changes to the job are handled
- What preparation is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
