Great Maplestead questions
Do you come to Great Maplestead?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Great Maplestead. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Bath resealing in Great Maplestead without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Why it’s worth resealing in Great Maplestead
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

What we’re called out for in Great Maplestead
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Mould you can’t clean out

- How changes to the job are handled
- What prep work is covered
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What affects the price in Great Maplestead
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. 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.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Maplestead as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
