Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Sherford, Plymouth
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homes and businesses in Sherford and across Plymouth. Free, fixed quotes from your photos.
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How we handle bath resealing in Sherford
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they keep water out. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths, and common reasons people contact us are sealant that’s split or lifting and an untidy old seal.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Sherford questions
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
Resealing in Sherford: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sherford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- No extra charge for your area

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When to call us in Sherford
