Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Brumstead, Norfolk
Bath resealing in and around Brumstead: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty

What affects the price in Brumstead
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NR12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Bath resealing at your home in Brumstead
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and an untidy old seal, we can normally put it right, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Brumstead and across Norfolk.

What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Questions from Brumstead
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How much does bath resealing cost in Brumstead?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What we’re called out for in Brumstead
Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- An untidy old seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Missing sealant behind the taps
