Bath resealing for Perranporth homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Bath resealing at your home in Perranporth

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We are often asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and silicone smeared on tiles, in wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.

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

Why it’s worth resealing in Perranporth

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Perranporth clients choose us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Advice

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Air the room after use

Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Perranporth, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can price the job without visiting.

Your questions about bath resealing in Perranporth

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
