Bath resealing in Fersfield Common, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and the jobs we see most are old sealant that looks dirty and damp near the bath.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What bath resealing costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Fersfield Common. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
- Store bottles on a shelf
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Your questions about bath resealing in Fersfield Common
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Do you cover Fersfield Common?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Fersfield Common. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Common problems we fix in Fersfield Common
Even good sealant eventually discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
- An untidy old seal

- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP22 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
