Bath resealing in Stoke Gabriel, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about missing sealant behind the taps and black mould in the sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Stoke Gabriel and across Devon.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- 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.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Signs you need bath resealing in Stoke Gabriel
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How soon you can use it again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
Common questions in Stoke Gabriel
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How long will it take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
