Bath resealing near Trezaise

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Use the extractor fan

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

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Bath resealing in Trezaise without replacing anything

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and silicone coming away from the tiles, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Your questions about bath resealing in Trezaise

When can I use the bath after resealing?

You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Are there extra charges for Trezaise?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths

When to call us in Trezaise

Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trezaise as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

How we price bath resealing

There’s no charge for travel to Trezaise. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most customers in Trezaise get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
