Bath resealing in Ugley Green without replacing anything

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. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and discoloured, yellow sealant, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Essex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Your questions about bath resealing in Ugley Green

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.

Do you come to Ugley Green?

We do. We send a technician to Ugley Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Ugley Green

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • An untidy old seal
  • Mould you cannot clean out
  • Unsealed corners

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
