Bath Resealing for Cranleigh homes
Bath resealing across Cranleigh and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- A messy previous reseal
- Mould you can’t clean out
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
How we handle bath resealing in Cranleigh
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We are often asked to fix silicone coming away from the tiles and a messy previous reseal, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

Cranleigh: your questions answered
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Landlord and trade work in Cranleigh
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cranleigh as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Resealing in Cranleigh: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cranleigh. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
