Bath resealing in Telscombe Cliffs without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and gaps by the taps, we can usually put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Resealing in Telscombe Cliffs: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep the joints dry
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take about two hours for a bath. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access

Telscombe Cliffs questions
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Telscombe Cliffs?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Telscombe Cliffs as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
