Bath resealing in Cranmore, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Common call-outs are for discoloured, yellow sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Cranmore questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
What else we do in Cranmore
Why it’s worth resealing in Cranmore
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What we’re called out for in Cranmore
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The things clients typically mention when they call are:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
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. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
