Bath resealing in Great Lea Common without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We work on baths, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are leaks at the edges and missing sealant behind the taps.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes around two hours. We leave the room clean.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Common questions in Great Lea Common
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
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.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you come to Great Lea Common?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Great Lea Common from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What else we do in Great Lea Common
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Open a window after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Signs you need bath resealing in Great Lea Common
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps by the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Old sealant that looks dirty
