Bath resealing in Shaftenhoe End, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and water getting behind the bath or tray, across wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Do you need bath resealing in Shaftenhoe End?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Black mould in the sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Damp near the bath
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long it needs to cure

Questions from Shaftenhoe End
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.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.
Do you come to Shaftenhoe End?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Shaftenhoe End from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does someone need to be in?

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Hidden water damage
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
