Bath resealing near Mildenhall

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

How we handle bath resealing in Mildenhall

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We’re frequently asked to fix stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Store bottles on a shelf
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. We ensure the joint is completely dry.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

FAQs for Mildenhall

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How long will it take?

A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

What bath resealing costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Mildenhall. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Mildenhall, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
