Resealing in Hickling: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Bath resealing in Hickling without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and damp near the bath, we can help, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Let steam out after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Landlord and trade work in Hickling
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Hickling, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
