When a repair is not the answer

- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Bath resealing in Bucklesham, done in place
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s unsealed corners and a messy previous reseal, we can normally put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Bucklesham
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Gaps by the taps
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the room is protected while they work
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
