Bath resealing in Mistley, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

FAQs for Mistley
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Common problems we fix in Mistley
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What affects the price in Mistley
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price

Landlord and trade work in Mistley
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
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.
