Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Bath resealing in Lanreath, done in place
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, plus curing time. Common call-outs are for leaks at the edges and stained silicone, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Common problems we fix in Lanreath

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Questions from Lanreath
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How long will it take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lanreath
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
Why it’s worth resealing in Lanreath
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
