Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Resealing in Crawleyside: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why Crawleyside customers choose us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One price list for the entire UK
- No need to remove anything
- Generally one visit, start to finish
See our prices page.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Signs you need bath resealing in Crawleyside
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

- Damp near the bath
- Missing sealant behind the taps

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Questions from Crawleyside
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
