How we price bath resealing
We do not charge extra for travel to Stoke-by-Nayland. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Stoke-by-Nayland, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How we handle bath resealing in Stoke-by-Nayland
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on baths, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Stoke-by-Nayland questions
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work in Stoke-by-Nayland?
We do. We send a technician to Stoke-by-Nayland for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How long will it take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
