Bath resealing for Woodbridge homes

Bath resealing in Woodbridge without replacing anything

Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can generally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Why reseal now?

Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Woodbridge. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Woodbridge customers choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Woodbridge

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

What affects the price in Woodbridge

There’s no charge for travel to Woodbridge. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common questions in Woodbridge

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you come to Woodbridge?

We do. We send a technician to Woodbridge for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Woodbridge and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting
  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Wipe the joints dry after use

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Woodbridge

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take around two hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Woodbridge, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
