Bath resealing in Clavering, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and people most often call us about stained silicone and silicone smeared on tiles.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Do you need bath resealing in Clavering?
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Look out for these signs:
- Damp near the bath
- A messy previous reseal
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks

Landlord and trade work in Clavering
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Why it’s worth resealing in Clavering
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CB11 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
