Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Lamarsh, Essex
We travel to Lamarsh for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Stained silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- An untidy old seal
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Bath resealing in Lamarsh, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. If you’re dealing with black mould in the sealant and unsealed corners, we can generally put it right, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What affects the price in Lamarsh
There’s no charge for travel to Lamarsh. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Lamarsh
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Signs you need bath resealing in Lamarsh
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Leaks at the edges
Before you book anyone
- What prep work is covered
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How changes to the job are handled
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
