Trusted bath resealing in Sizewell

Bath resealing in Sizewell, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We work on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are mould you can’t clean out and water getting behind the bath or tray.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How we price bath resealing

We do not charge extra for travel to Sizewell. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Sizewell, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Let steam out after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Sizewell questions

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What does bath resealing cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you cover Sizewell?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Sizewell from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
