Bath resealing at your home in Lambourne
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges, we can usually put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What affects the price in Lambourne
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you’re in Lambourne and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Lambourne questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you cover Lambourne?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Lambourne and the rest of Essex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time.
