Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Southend, Hampshire
We travel to Southend for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Stained silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that is split or lifting
How we handle bath resealing in Southend
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most often call us about leaks at the edges and old sealant that looks dirty.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Let steam out after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Southend questions
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you cover Southend?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Southend from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What bath resealing costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Southend. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
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. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a couple of hours.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Advice
Signs you need bath resealing in Southend
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Comparing quotes
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Why it’s worth resealing in Southend
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
