Bath resealing in Sutton Courtenay, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We’re often asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and stained silicone, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hidden water damage

DIY kit or professional repair?
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’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
FAQs for Sutton Courtenay
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Sutton Courtenay?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Why it’s worth resealing in Sutton Courtenay
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Let steam out after showers
- Use the extractor fan
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
