Otterton: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

What else we do in Otterton
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Do you need bath resealing in Otterton?
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What affects the price in Otterton
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- The material
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Otterton, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
