Questions from Christmas Common
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the curing time from us.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are there extra charges for Christmas Common?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Bath resealing at your home in Christmas Common
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops using mould-resistant silicone. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours. Our technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and the jobs we see most are gaps by the taps and discoloured, yellow sealant.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Christmas Common and across Oxfordshire.

What we’re called out for in Christmas Common
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould takes hold.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
- An untidy old seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- How to care for the finish

- How the room is protected while they work
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Why it’s worth resealing in Christmas Common
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Work done at your home or business
- Fixed prices from your pictures

How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Dry the seal after bathing
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
