Your questions about bath resealing in Sidford
Do you work for schools and businesses in Sidford?
Yes, commercial work is part of what we do, and our accreditations include CHAS and Constructionline. Send photos and details of the building.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Do you cover the whole of Devon?
Across the UK, and that includes Sidford. Prices don’t change with location.
About our bath resealing in Sidford
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are mould you can’t clean out and an untidy old seal.
In a smaller place like Sidford, most homes are houses or bungalows, and resealing keeps water out of walls and floors.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Common problems we fix in Sidford
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Gaps by the taps
- Damp near the bath
- A messy previous reseal
- Black mould in the sealant
If you manage a building such as Sidmouth College, we repair changing rooms and washrooms as well as work in homes.
Before booking anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- How the colour is matched
- How the room is protected while they work
- Aftercare advice
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. For a home around Sidford where the bath or shower is sound, replacing it is rarely worth the cost and disruption.
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result. In a smaller place like Sidford, parking is rarely a problem. Mention a lane, gate or long drive when you book.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
