Bath resealing in Strete, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are silicone smeared on tiles and silicone coming away from the tiles.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Do you need bath resealing in Strete?
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Unsealed corners
- Black mould in the sealant
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the room is protected while they work
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Strete: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Air the room after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Typically one visit, start to finish
