Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Fingringhoe, Essex
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Fingringhoe, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Mould you can’t clean out
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Open a window after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
About our bath resealing in Fingringhoe
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s silicone smeared on tiles and gaps by the taps, we can help.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fingringhoe as everywhere else we work.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the area is dry

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fingringhoe as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What bath resealing costs
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
When to call us in Fingringhoe
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.
Common reasons people in Fingringhoe contact us include:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Mould you cannot clean out
Before you book anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Why reseal now?
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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Fingringhoe questions
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Fingringhoe.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Fingringhoe. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
