About our bath resealing in Sturmer
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include black spots in the silicone and an untidy old seal, across wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What happens on the day

- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive

Signs you need bath resealing in Sturmer
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- An untidy old seal

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- A flexing bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Your questions about bath resealing in Sturmer
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.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How long does a reseal take?
Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
