Bath resealing at your home in Oakley
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. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and gaps in the seal, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Oakley
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Air the room after use
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Details of any past repairs
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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Oakley questions
Are there extra charges for Oakley?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is repairing better 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 I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
