Bath resealing at your home in Wendens Ambo

Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for silicone smeared on tiles and black mould in the sealant, on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

What bath resealing costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Wendens Ambo

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover Wendens Ambo?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Wendens Ambo and the rest of Essex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the entire of Essex?

We cover the entire UK, including Wendens Ambo and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?

The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Wet rooms
  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Do you need bath resealing in Wendens Ambo?

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Unsealed corners
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage

Different materials, different repairs

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
