Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Bath resealing in Roborough, done in place
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are old sealant that looks dirty and silicone coming away from the tiles.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Your questions about bath resealing in Roborough
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
What areas do you cover?
All of Plymouth, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, usually around a day.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

- Hidden water damage
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
