Bath resealing in West Alvington without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about black mould in the sealant and leaks at the edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in West Alvington
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What bath resealing costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you’re in West Alvington and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
When to call us in West Alvington
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Black spots in the silicone
- An untidy old seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Damp near the bath
