About our bath resealing in Mannamead
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We are often asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What else we do in Mannamead
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Mannamead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What affects the price in Mannamead
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

FAQs for Mannamead
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Mannamead?
We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PL4 postcode.
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you cover the whole of Plymouth?
Across the UK, and that includes Mannamead. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
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.
