Bath resealing in Cranfield without replacing anything

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Questions from Cranfield

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Cranfield included. Travel is included in the price.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

Landlord and trade work in Cranfield

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we price bath resealing

There’s no charge for travel to Cranfield. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.

Resealing in Cranfield: why it matters

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When to call us in Cranfield

A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

  • Stained silicone
  • Leaks at the edges
  • Gaps in the seal
  • A messy previous reseal

Choosing a repair company

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes about two hours for a bath. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
  2. We clean the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Open a window after bathing

Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
