Bath resealing for Yelland homes

Why it’s worth resealing in Yelland

  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything

Bath resealing at your home in Yelland

A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We are frequently asked to fix a messy previous reseal and black mould in the sealant, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EX31 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

For anyone letting property in or around Yelland, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

What bath resealing costs

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Air the room after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Yelland questions

How long does resealing take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How much does bath resealing cost in Yelland?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your EX31 postcode.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
