Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Brockley, Suffolk
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Brockley, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brockley use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Bath resealing at your home in Brockley
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What bath resealing costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes around two hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Resealing in Brockley: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath resealing in Brockley
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you work in Brockley?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Brockley. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
