Common problems we fix in Penpont
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps in the seal
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you can’t clean out

Bath resealing in Penpont without replacing anything
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. If you’re dealing with mould you can’t clean out and gaps in the seal, we can normally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Penpont and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Same prices wherever you are
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- A fixed quote before you book

What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
If you’re in Penpont and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When we would advise against a repair

- Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Penpont
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Penpont questions
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you come to Penpont?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Penpont from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
