Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Pattiswick, Essex
Fixed-price bath resealing in Pattiswick and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Leaks at the edges
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Bath resealing in Pattiswick without replacing anything
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We are often asked to fix missing sealant behind the taps and gaps in the seal, across kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and basins & vanity units.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Pattiswick and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Pattiswick
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Essex.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What affects the price in Pattiswick
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pattiswick
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
When to call us in Pattiswick
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Look out for any of the following:
- Damp near the bath
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Old sealant that looks dirty
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
