Bath resealing near Capon's Green

Bath resealing at your home in Capon's Green

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are unsealed corners and silicone coming away from the tiles.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

When to call us in Capon's Green

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Unsealed corners
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, 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.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Common questions in Capon's Green

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

How much does bath resealing cost in Capon's Green?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Why it’s worth resealing in Capon's Green

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Capon's Green

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
