Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Tawstock, Devon

- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Leaks at the edges
How we handle bath resealing in Tawstock
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can normally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Why it’s worth resealing in Tawstock
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Everything repaired in place
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Signs you need bath resealing in Tawstock
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps by the taps
- Leaks at the edges
- Old sealant that looks dirty

Common questions in Tawstock
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
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.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Tawstock. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are there extra charges for Tawstock?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What affects the price in Tawstock
We don’t charge extra for travel to Tawstock. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
