Resealing in Great Bentley: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- One visit for most repairs
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Bath resealing at your home in Great Bentley
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and an untidy old seal, we can help, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

FAQs for Great Bentley
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover the whole of Essex?
We cover the whole UK, including Great Bentley and the rest of Essex. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are there extra charges for Great Bentley?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
When to call us in Great Bentley
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Damp near the bath
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps in the seal
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Prices and what affects them
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in Great Bentley get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
