About our bath resealing in Cressing
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s mould you can’t clean out and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can help, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cressing
For anyone letting property in or around Cressing, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common problems we fix in Cressing
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A messy previous reseal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Air the room after use
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to around two hours, including clearing up.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
