About our bath resealing in Ranworth

A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with unsealed corners and silicone smeared on tiles, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ranworth and across Norfolk.

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

How we price bath resealing

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. 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 all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

For a price in Ranworth, 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.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Air the room after use

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

FAQs for Ranworth

Which areas do you work in?

All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Movement is the usual cause. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
