Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people contact us are unsealed corners and stained silicone.

Great Notley questions
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Are there extra charges for Great Notley?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- 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
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Signs you need bath resealing in Great Notley
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Great Notley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
