About our bath resealing in Porlock Weir
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are leaks at the edges and a messy previous reseal.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What else we do in Porlock Weir
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Resealing in Porlock Weir: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area

Porlock Weir questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you cover Porlock Weir?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Porlock Weir from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep the joints dry
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Air the room after use
- Use the extractor fan
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
