Bath resealing at your home in Scorrier
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and stained silicone, we can help.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Scorrier
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Scorrier: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cornwall.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How much does bath resealing cost in Scorrier?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Why it’s worth resealing in Scorrier
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Signs you need bath resealing in Scorrier
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps by the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
