Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in St Stephens, Plymouth
Fixed-price bath resealing in St Stephens and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Mould you cannot clean out
- An untidy old seal
- Damp near the bath
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Hidden water damage
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

What else we do in St Stephens
What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
FAQs for St Stephens
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Signs you need bath resealing in St Stephens
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Unsealed corners
- Black mould in the sealant
- A messy previous reseal
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- How to care for the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
Why it’s worth resealing in St Stephens
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for St Stephens. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
