Bath Resealing for Berner's Cross homes
We travel to Berner's Cross for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps in the seal
- Damp near the bath
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Bath resealing at your home in Berner's Cross
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. We regularly repair baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about missing sealant behind the taps and black spots in the silicone.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What affects the price in Berner's Cross
There is no charge for travel to Berner's Cross. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EX19 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Baths
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 will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common questions in Berner's Cross
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
You will get the curing time from us, normally around a day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Berner's Cross.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
