Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Mousehole, Cornwall
Bath resealing across Mousehole and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Unsealed corners
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Mould you can’t clean out
How we handle bath resealing in Mousehole
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can generally put it right, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Mousehole and across Cornwall.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Common questions in Mousehole
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We will give you the curing time.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you need bath resealing in Mousehole?
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges

What we cannot put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
