Bath resealing in Cardinal's Green without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal, we can typically put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal at the first sign of lifting

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What we’re called out for in Cardinal's Green

Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould grows faster.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • An untidy old seal
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black spots in the silicone

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before booking

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Baths

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

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

What bath resealing costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Cardinal's Green. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Cardinal's Green questions

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Cardinal's Green?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Usually because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How long does resealing take?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A flexing bath
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cardinal's Green. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
