Your questions about bath resealing in Stutton

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

We’ll give you the curing time.

How much does bath resealing cost in Stutton?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stutton

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stutton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

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

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.

Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

How we price bath resealing

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IP9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
