Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Manaccan, Cornwall
Bath resealing in and around Manaccan: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
Bath resealing in Manaccan without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and silicone coming away from the tiles.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, 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’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Your questions about bath resealing in Manaccan
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover Manaccan?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Manaccan and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
