Bath resealing in Newlyn without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and leaks at the edges, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newlyn
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newlyn as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
Do you need bath resealing in Newlyn?
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Stained silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
Your questions about bath resealing in Newlyn
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do you work in Newlyn?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Newlyn for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Newlyn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Air the room after use
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
