Bath resealing across Hempton and nearby, generally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
Bath resealing in Hempton, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and people most often call us about leaks at the edges and missing sealant behind the taps.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take around two hours, tidy-up included.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Your questions about bath resealing in Hempton
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What we’re called out for in Hempton
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Unsealed corners
- Black spots in the silicone
- A messy previous reseal
- Leaks at the edges
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Landlord and trade work in Hempton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hempton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Work done at your home or business
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

What bath resealing costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
