Bath Resealing for St Columb Road homes
Bath resealing across St Columb Road and nearby, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Leaks at the edges
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
About our bath resealing in St Columb Road
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are gaps in the seal and old sealant that looks dirty.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Let steam out after showers
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, 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.
St Columb Road: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cornwall.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in St Columb Road?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Columb Road use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Do you need bath resealing in St Columb Road?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
People normally call us after spotting one of these:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Unsealed corners
- Stained silicone
- Leaks at the edges
Before booking anyone
