Bath resealing in Balls Cross without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and silicone coming away from the tiles.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Do you need bath resealing in Balls Cross?

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

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Damp near the bath
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How to care for the finish

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A flexing bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes about two hours for a bath. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common questions in Balls Cross

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Balls Cross.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Balls Cross included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do you work in Balls Cross?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Balls Cross and the rest of West Sussex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What affects the price in Balls Cross

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
