How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to about two hours for a bath, tidy-up included.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

FAQs for Chelsworth
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Chelsworth. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

How quickly can you book me in?

Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Resealing in Chelsworth: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Chelsworth. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What else we do in Chelsworth
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
What bath resealing costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
