Bath Resealing for Feering homes
Our technicians come to Feering for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
- Old sealant that looks dirty
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Bath resealing in Feering, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are silicone coming away from the tiles and a messy previous reseal.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Store bottles on a shelf
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone

What else we do in Feering
Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Feering. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
What we are called out for in Feering
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Silicone coming away from the tiles

Feering questions
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Feering?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
