Bath resealing at your home in Lavenham
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. Common call-outs are for stained silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray, in kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price bath resealing
There’s no area surcharge for Lavenham. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower

Your questions about bath resealing in Lavenham
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Lavenham.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Open a window after bathing
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Signs you need bath resealing in Lavenham
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Gaps by the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps in the seal
