How the visit works

- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive

Related advice
Bath resealing in Benacre without replacing anything
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. Typical jobs include unsealed corners and leaks at the edges, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep the joints dry
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
What affects the price in Benacre
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Benacre questions
Do you work in Benacre?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Benacre and the rest of Suffolk. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How long does a reseal take?
Generally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Hidden water damage
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hollow or loose tiles
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
