Bath resealing at your home in Creeting Bottoms
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for missing sealant behind the taps and sealant that’s split or lifting, across kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Your questions about bath resealing in Creeting Bottoms
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How long does a reseal take?
Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Creeting Bottoms and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damp near the bath

What bath resealing costs
There’s no charge for travel to Creeting Bottoms. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
