Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Mawnan, Cornwall
Bath resealing in and around Mawnan: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Stained silicone
- Unsealed corners
- An untidy old seal
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
How we handle bath resealing in Mawnan
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and water getting behind the bath or tray, across baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Mawnan. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. We do not add 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.

FAQs for Mawnan
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Mawnan included. Travel is included in the price.
How much does bath resealing cost in Mawnan?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
When to call us in Mawnan
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Stained silicone
Before booking anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- What protection goes down before work starts

- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.

- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
