About our bath resealing in St Cleer

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for leaks at the edges and gaps in the seal, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

When to call us in St Cleer

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Old sealant that looks dirty

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • How to look after the finish
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before you book

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

FAQs for St Cleer

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How long before I can shower?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

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.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.

What bath resealing costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
