Bath resealing in Talaton without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair baths, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are an untidy old seal and black mould in the sealant.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Why it’s worth resealing in Talaton
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Do you need bath resealing in Talaton?
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Talaton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What else we do in Talaton
Common questions in Talaton
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Do you cover the whole of Devon?
The entire UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX5 postcode.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
