Bath resealing in Chelmsford without replacing anything
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and leaks at the edges, we can help, on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Chelmsford and across Essex.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- 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.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Resealing in Chelmsford: why it matters
Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Questions from Chelmsford
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Essex. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you work in Chelmsford?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Chelmsford from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Repairs by material
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chelmsford use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Chelmsford, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
