About our bath resealing in Cockfield
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. If you’re dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and unsealed corners, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

What else we do in Cockfield
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cockfield use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Common problems we fix in Cockfield
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Work done at your home or business
- Everything repaired in place
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Cockfield: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you work in Cockfield?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Cockfield. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
