About our bath resealing in St Cross South Elmham

A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. Common call-outs are for sealant that’s split or lifting and missing sealant behind the taps, on kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Cross South Elmham

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Cross South Elmham as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a couple of hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Related advice

Why it’s worth resealing in St Cross South Elmham

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Read our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP20 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Signs you need bath resealing in St Cross South Elmham

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Mould you cannot clean out

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
