Bath resealing in Petrockstowe, done in place
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. If you are dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and black spots in the silicone, we can help, on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Petrockstowe and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlord and trade work in Petrockstowe
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
How we price bath resealing
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Petrockstowe
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Are there extra charges for Petrockstowe?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How much does bath resealing cost in Petrockstowe?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your EX20 postcode.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Petrockstowe
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
Do you need bath resealing in Petrockstowe?
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Gaps in the seal
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Comparing quotes
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Why reseal now?

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
