Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Mevagissey, Cornwall
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Mevagissey, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Gaps by the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Bath resealing in Mevagissey 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, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are unsealed corners and stained silicone.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

What we’re called out for in Mevagissey
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Look out for these signs:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps by the taps
- A messy previous reseal
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Questions from Mevagissey
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Generally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How much does bath resealing cost in Mevagissey?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your PL26 postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Mevagissey.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
What bath resealing costs
There’s no charge for travel to Mevagissey. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
