Bath Resealing for Longdown homes
Local bath resealing for Longdown: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Gaps in the seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Work for landlords and builders
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 also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Bath resealing in Longdown without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about unsealed corners and silicone smeared on tiles.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Why it’s worth resealing in Longdown
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Signs you need bath resealing in Longdown
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Stained silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry

Our work in Longdown
Longdown is about 4 miles west of Exeter, in Devon. We visit homes and businesses in Longdown and nearby villages, so there’s no workshop to go to. Longdown is one of 586 towns and villages in Devon we cover.
Our visits in EX6 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. We regularly work on streets such as Longdown Road, Chapel Hill and Vicarage Lane. Nearby, we also work in Ide (2 miles east), Nadderwater (2 miles north-east), Cowick (2 miles east), St Thomas (3 miles east) and Alphington (3 miles east).

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you are in Longdown and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
