Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Loughton, Essex
We travel to Loughton for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Damp near the bath
About our bath resealing in Loughton
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Loughton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Loughton questions
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
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.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
Why it’s worth resealing in Loughton
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
