Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Air the room after use

Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access

Why it’s worth resealing in Sutton St Edmund

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A fixed quote before booking

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Your questions about bath resealing in Sutton St Edmund

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Landlord and trade work in Sutton St Edmund

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
