About our bath resealing in Thrandeston
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We are often asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and black spots in the silicone, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common problems we fix in Thrandeston
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Unsealed corners
- Gaps in the seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- A messy previous reseal

Thrandeston: your questions answered
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Thrandeston

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Let steam out after showers
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Thrandeston, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
