Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Buttsbury, Essex
Our technicians come to Buttsbury for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- A messy previous reseal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Advice
Bath resealing in Buttsbury without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We’re frequently asked to fix gaps by the taps and leaks at the edges, on baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Your questions about bath resealing in Buttsbury
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We will give you the curing time, generally around a day.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Essex.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Open a window after bathing
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
