Trusted bath resealing in Meshaw

How we price bath resealing

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Bath resealing at your home in Meshaw

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are old sealant that looks dirty and missing sealant behind the taps.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need bath resealing in Meshaw

Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black spots in the silicone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Meshaw

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Most clients in Meshaw get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Meshaw: your questions answered

Do you come to Meshaw?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Meshaw and the rest of Devon. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

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’ll say so.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
