What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can

Bath resealing in Laneast, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with gaps by the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can help, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Laneast
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Laneast and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Laneast?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you work in Laneast?
We do. We send a technician to Laneast for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Let steam out after showers
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Landlord and trade work in Laneast
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Laneast as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
What bath resealing costs
There’s no area surcharge for Laneast. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
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.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
