Bath resealing near Ponsanooth

Bath resealing in Ponsanooth without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you are dealing with mould you can’t clean out and stained silicone, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we are called out for in Ponsanooth

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A messy previous reseal
  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

What affects the price in Ponsanooth

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Why it’s worth resealing in Ponsanooth

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Read our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
