Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Bacton, Suffolk
We travel to Bacton for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black spots in the silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Bath resealing in Bacton, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and an untidy old seal.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Bacton
If you manage property in Bacton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 normally the cheaper route.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take around two hours, including clearing up.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Your questions about bath resealing in Bacton
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Suffolk.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
