How we handle bath resealing in Rendlesham
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are silicone smeared on tiles and old sealant that looks dirty.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Rendlesham as everywhere else we work.

Resealing in Rendlesham: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Rendlesham customers choose us
- One visit for most repairs

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
How we price bath resealing
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Rendlesham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
When to call us in Rendlesham
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps by the taps
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

Rendlesham questions
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Rendlesham and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with 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
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
