Bath resealing at your home in Norton End
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the whole room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are old sealant that looks dirty and a messy previous reseal.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Norton End
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Norton End, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Norton End: your questions answered
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How we price bath resealing
We do not charge extra for travel to Norton End. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Norton End. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
