Landlord and trade work in Witnesham
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Witnesham use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Your questions about bath resealing in Witnesham
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Witnesham?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP6 postcode.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you need bath resealing in Witnesham?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Unsealed corners
- Leaks at the edges
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled

Repairs by material
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep the joints dry
- Let steam out after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What else we do in Witnesham
What affects the price in Witnesham
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
