Bath resealing in Southminster without replacing anything
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We regularly repair baths, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about silicone smeared on tiles and leaks at the edges.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

When to call us in Southminster
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Damp near the bath
- An untidy old seal
- Sealant that’s split or lifting

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
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 there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What else we do in Southminster
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Southminster
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Southminster questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Southminster is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
