Bath resealing at your home in Trimsaran
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and unsealed corners.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What bath resealing costs
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SA17 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Your questions about bath resealing in Trimsaran
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Trimsaran?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What we’re called out for in Trimsaran
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Common reasons people in Trimsaran contact us include:
- Leaks at the edges
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
