Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Ufford, Suffolk
Fixed-price bath resealing in Ufford and the surrounding area, usually in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Bath resealing at your home in Ufford
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We are frequently asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and black mould in the sealant, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common questions in Ufford
How long does resealing take?
Typically a couple of hours, plus curing time.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Do you work in Ufford?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Ufford and the rest of Suffolk. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Typically after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How we price bath resealing
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IP13 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
