How we handle bath resealing in Littlehempston
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you are dealing with water getting behind the bath or tray and missing sealant behind the taps, we can normally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Littlehempston: your questions answered
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Are there extra charges for Littlehempston?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Landlord and trade work in Littlehempston
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Littlehempston as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Resealing in Littlehempston: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- 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
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
