Bath resealing at your home in Finchingfield
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with discoloured, yellow sealant and gaps in the seal, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlord and trade work in Finchingfield
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Finchingfield use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Why it’s worth resealing in Finchingfield
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Your questions about bath resealing in Finchingfield
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover the whole of Essex?
Everywhere in the UK, Finchingfield included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

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

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A flexing bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
