Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Alby, Norfolk
Bath resealing across Alby and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps by the taps
- Stained silicone
- Damp near the bath
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
How we handle bath resealing in Alby
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s black spots in the silicone and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can help, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray

Signs you need bath resealing in Alby
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Your questions about bath resealing in Alby
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time, generally around a day.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
