About our bath resealing in Thelbridge
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are often asked to fix black mould in the sealant and gaps in the seal, in kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
In older homes in a village like Thelbridge, walls and floors can move a little, and that splits sealant. We fill the bath before sealing so the joint lasts.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Common questions in Thelbridge
Do you work for landlords with property near Lapford station?
Yes, we often work between tenancies, and we can quote for several properties together.
Will you travel to Thelbridge?
Yes, we do: small places like Thelbridge are covered as standard. Just mention any tricky access.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we tidy up before we leave.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy. In a village or hamlet like Thelbridge, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hidden water damage

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Let steam out after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Replacement in Thelbridge means trades, travel and waste removal, while bath resealing is one trip.
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
