Bath resealing in Plaidy, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are damp near the bath and discoloured, yellow sealant.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
Questions from Plaidy
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you cover Plaidy?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Plaidy from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
What we are called out for in Plaidy
Even good sealant eventually discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
