About our bath resealing in Storrs
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. Typical jobs include an untidy old seal and leaks at the edges, in shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What we are called out for in Storrs
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Common reasons people in Storrs contact us include:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black mould in the sealant
- An untidy old seal
- Sealant that is split or lifting
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint 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, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
