Bath resealing at your home in Boyton Cross
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with mould you can’t clean out and silicone smeared on tiles, we can help, on baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Boyton Cross. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures

- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Natural light rather than flash

Common problems we fix in Boyton Cross
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Black spots in the silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to care for the finish
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.

Why it’s worth resealing in Boyton Cross
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
