How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure 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, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage

Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Hidden water damage
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units

What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Harold Wood: your questions answered

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you cover the entire of Essex?
Across the UK, so Harold Wood is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do I have to be there?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.
When to call us in Harold Wood
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
