Bath resealing in Crewkerne, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Let steam out after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Crewkerne questions
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How much does bath resealing cost in Crewkerne?
We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TA18 postcode.

We work UK-wide, and that includes Crewkerne. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Other services in Crewkerne
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes about two hours for a bath, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can

How we price bath resealing
We charge the same across the UK, including Crewkerne. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When to call us in Crewkerne
Joints split if the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Leaks at the edges
- Missing sealant behind the taps
