How we handle bath resealing in Great Leighs
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. We regularly repair baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are unsealed corners and sealant that’s split or lifting.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- 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, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
If you’re in Great Leighs and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
