Bath resealing at your home in East Bergholt
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are mould you can’t clean out and damp near the bath.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Common problems we fix in East Bergholt
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Damp near the bath
- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Before booking anyone
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
The process
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
