Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone at your home in Stebbing, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.

Bath resealing in Stebbing, done in place
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Typical jobs include missing sealant behind the taps and black spots in the silicone, in basins & vanity units, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Why it’s worth resealing in Stebbing
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow around two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Use the extractor fan
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Stebbing: your questions answered
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
