Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Yealmpton, Devon
We travel to Yealmpton for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Leaks at the edges
- Black spots in the silicone
- Unsealed corners
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Bath resealing at your home in Yealmpton
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can help.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price bath resealing
There’s no charge for travel to Yealmpton. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it

Your questions about bath resealing in Yealmpton
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Yealmpton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
