Your questions about bath resealing in Brandeston
Are there extra charges for Brandeston?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How we handle bath resealing in Brandeston
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare

Advice
Common problems we fix in Brandeston
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you can’t clean out
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep the joints dry
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Brandeston
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
