Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

How we handle bath resealing in Great Cressingham

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths, and people most frequently call us about water getting behind the bath or tray and discoloured, yellow sealant.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath resealing in Great Cressingham?

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Stained silicone
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice

Your questions about bath resealing in Great Cressingham

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.

Do you cover Great Cressingham?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Great Cressingham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Let steam out after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Cressingham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What affects the price in Great Cressingham

There’s no charge for travel to Great Cressingham. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Great Cressingham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. We dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
