Bath resealing for Torbryan homes

What your bath or shower is made of matters

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.

How we handle bath resealing in Torbryan

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are an untidy old seal and mould you can’t clean out.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Torbryan and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price bath resealing

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TQ12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Torbryan

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you come to Torbryan?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Torbryan. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Common problems we fix in Torbryan

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Stained silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Why it’s worth resealing in Torbryan

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
