Bath resealing in Parracombe

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

How we handle bath resealing in Parracombe

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are gaps by the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Parracombe and across Devon.

What we are called out for in Parracombe

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps by the taps

How to compare quotes

Why it’s worth resealing in Parracombe

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

The process

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Parracombe: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Parracombe?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
