Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Kelling, Norfolk
Our repair technicians come to Kelling for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Bath resealing in Kelling, done in place
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Our technicians work on baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are mould you can’t clean out and old sealant that looks dirty.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When to call us in Kelling
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Look out for any of the following:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- An untidy old seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Damp near the bath
Before booking anyone
- What preparation is included
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
