DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How we handle bath resealing in Sutton Cheney
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and a messy previous reseal, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
