Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Saffron Walden, Essex
We travel to Saffron Walden for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Stained silicone
- A messy previous reseal
- Gaps in the seal
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Let steam out after showers
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
How we handle bath resealing in Saffron Walden
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are stained silicone and black spots in the silicone.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Common questions in Saffron Walden
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Saffron Walden.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You’ll get the curing time from us, typically around a day.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What bath resealing costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Saffron Walden. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
Most clients in Saffron Walden get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Saffron Walden, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Saffron Walden as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
