About our bath resealing in Barham
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair wet rooms, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are an untidy old seal and stained silicone.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Your questions about bath resealing in Barham
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How long will it take?
Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you work in Barham?
We do. We send a technician to Barham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you need bath resealing in Barham?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- Gaps by the taps
- Mould you can’t clean out
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Let steam out after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t charge extra for travel to Barham. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Barham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
