Bath resealing near Patchole

About our bath resealing in Patchole

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about black mould in the sealant and gaps by the taps.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Patchole and across Devon.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about bath resealing in Patchole

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Patchole.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Do you need bath resealing in Patchole?

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Stained silicone
  • An untidy old seal
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Patchole as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 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.
