Bath resealing near Raginnis

Bath resealing at your home in Raginnis

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We’re often asked to fix damp near the bath and an untidy old seal, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Raginnis and across Cornwall.

  • Gaps by the taps

Is resealing worth it?

What a repair cannot fix

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Common questions in Raginnis

Do you work in Raginnis?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Raginnis from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How long does resealing take?

Generally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What affects the price in Raginnis

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

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

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Raginnis

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Raginnis use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for around two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
