Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Chaulden, Hertfordshire
Bath resealing for Chaulden, without a refit. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Gaps in the seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- A messy previous reseal
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Chaulden. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Chaulden customers choose us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Same prices wherever you are
- Everything repaired in place
- We leave the room as we found it

How we handle bath resealing in Chaulden
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can usually put it right, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Chaulden and across Hertfordshire.

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hidden water damage
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
