Bath resealing in Ramsden Heath, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Questions from Ramsden Heath
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How long will it take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we cannot put right

- Hidden water damage
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Let steam out after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep bottles off the joints
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes about two hours for a bath, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Ramsden Heath. The price depends on:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
