Resealing in Shalmsford Street: why it matters
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Work done at your home or business
- A fixed quote before you book
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays

Shalmsford Street questions
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
