About our bath resealing in Butcher's Common

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you are dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help, on basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Your questions about bath resealing in Butcher's Common

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you come to Butcher's Common?

We do. We send a technician to Butcher's Common for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?

The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you need bath resealing in Butcher's Common?

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Black mould in the sealant
  • An untidy old seal
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Open a window after bathing

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Butcher's Common

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Hidden water damage
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
