Bath resealing at your home in Crich
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s discoloured, yellow sealant and black spots in the silicone, we can help.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

FAQs for Crich
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Crich.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Why it’s worth resealing in Crich
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Do you need bath resealing in Crich?
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A messy previous reseal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black spots in the silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
