Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Moreton, Essex
Fixed-price bath resealing in Moreton and the surrounding area, usually in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps in the seal
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
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:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
What affects the price in Moreton
We don’t charge extra for travel to Moreton. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Landlord and trade work in Moreton
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Moreton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Moreton: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
