Bath resealing in Trekenning, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with damp near the bath and an untidy old seal, we can generally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What else we do in Trekenning
What bath resealing costs
There is no area surcharge for Trekenning. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Common questions in Trekenning
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are there extra charges for Trekenning?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
We work UK-wide, so Trekenning is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Let steam out after showers
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, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A flexing bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Trekenning
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
Common problems we fix in Trekenning
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price covers travel
