Questions from Turfdown
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How much does bath resealing cost in Turfdown?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

What else we do in Turfdown
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- 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, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PL30 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
