Is Long Green within the area you cover?
Yes. Long Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Which products do you use?

No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
How much does bathroom resealing cost in Long Green?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Can you get rid of the black mould in my sealant?
Yes. Mould inside the bead rarely cleans out for good, so the bead comes out, the joint is treated and new anti-fungal silicone goes in.
About our bathroom resealing in Long Green
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. They’re resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. If you have a reseal done over the top of the old bead and sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away, we can put it right.
Homes around Long Green are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Long Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Move anything stored near the joints

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A tray or bath that is cracked through
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
What the job involves on each surface
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.
Sinks & splashbacks
The edge of an inset sink is a common place for water to get under the worktop. Where the sealant around the visible edge has failed, we renew it.
For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
When to call us in Long Green
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Black mould in the silicone that will not clean off
- Water getting behind the bath panel
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
Schools such as Cressing Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before you book
- What guarantee comes with the work
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- What product goes in the joint
- How much experience the applicator has
What happens if it’s left?
Running new silicone over the old joint can look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out. Around Long Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Bathroom resealing in Long Green: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near St Barnabas, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you let a flat or house near Braintree Freeport station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.
