Bath resealing in Wickhampton without replacing anything

We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and a messy previous reseal, we can normally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units alike.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Wickhampton: your questions answered

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How long does resealing take?

Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Hidden water damage
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price bath resealing

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Why it’s worth resealing in Wickhampton

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
