Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Bath resealing at your home in Crow's Green

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. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are black mould in the sealant and damp near the bath.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes around two hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can

Repairs by material

Shower trays

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

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

When to call us in Crow's Green

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • An untidy old seal

10 questions to ask before booking

What bath resealing costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Your questions about bath resealing in Crow's Green

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover the entire of Essex?

We work UK-wide, so Crow's Green is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • A flexing bath
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Wet rooms

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, 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. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
