Bath resealing at your home in Shirwell Cross
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are stained silicone and black mould in the sealant.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Your questions about bath resealing in Shirwell Cross
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. We leave the room clean.

- 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.
Getting ready for the visit

Landlord and trade work in Shirwell Cross
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we’re called out for in Shirwell Cross
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Look out for any of the following:

- Stained silicone

Resealing in Shirwell Cross: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- One visit for most repairs

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Shirwell Cross. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
