About our bath resealing in Brook Green
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and old sealant that looks dirty.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Why it’s worth resealing in Brook Green
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common questions in Brook Green
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How much does bath resealing cost in Brook Green?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
Signs you need bath resealing in Brook Green
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps by the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Damp near the bath
