Bath resealing at your home in Barnston
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for an untidy old seal and black spots in the silicone, across kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and shower trays & enclosures.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barnston
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Barnston questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Essex.
Do you cover Barnston?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Barnston and the rest of Essex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
When to call us in Barnston
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Look out for any of the following:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Damp near the bath
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A flexing bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Barnston
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow about two hours for a bath.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. We don’t add 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.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Work done at your home or business
- No need to remove anything
- Generally one visit, start to finish
Take a look at our prices page.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
