Bath resealing in Belchamp Otten, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We are often asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and gaps by the taps, in shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Before you book anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why it’s worth resealing in Belchamp Otten
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- 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, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Air the room after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Dry the seal after bathing
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
