People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- Unsealed corners

Bath resealing at your home in Stretcholt
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We work on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are silicone smeared on tiles and gaps in the seal.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What else we do in Stretcholt
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Stretcholt, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Air the room after use
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stretcholt. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Common questions in Stretcholt
Do you cover the entire of Somerset?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Stretcholt. Prices don’t change with location.
How long will it take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover Stretcholt?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Stretcholt from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
