Bath resealing in Tuddenham St Martin without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We’re often asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and mould you can’t clean out, across shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Common questions in Tuddenham St Martin
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do you come to Tuddenham St Martin?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Tuddenham St Martin and the rest of Suffolk. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
How much does bath resealing cost in Tuddenham St Martin?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the joints dry
- Use the extractor fan
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Common problems we fix in Tuddenham St Martin
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Tuddenham St Martin
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP6 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
