How we handle bath resealing in Stiffkey
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re frequently asked to fix stained silicone and gaps in the seal, in wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What bath resealing costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Stiffkey. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Resealing in Stiffkey: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Questions from Stiffkey
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time, typically around a day.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Stiffkey?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your NR23 postcode.
