How we handle bath resealing in Hale End
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with black mould in the sealant and leaks at the edges, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Hidden water damage

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair

- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price bath resealing
There’s no charge for travel to Hale End. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- 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 apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Common questions in Hale End
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, generally around 24 hours.
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.
