Bath resealing for Phillack homes

Bath resealing in Phillack, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you are dealing with leaks at the edges and gaps in the seal, we can help.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Phillack and across Cornwall.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.

Before we arrive

Related advice

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Movement in the bath or tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Common questions in Phillack

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you work in Phillack?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Phillack for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Phillack and the rest of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

How long will it take?

Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.

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

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How long before I can shower?

Generally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Signs you need bath resealing in Phillack

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
