Crigglestone: your questions answered
Are there extra charges for Crigglestone?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you work in Crigglestone?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Crigglestone from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Common problems we fix in Crigglestone
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Gaps in the seal
- An untidy old seal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we price bath resealing
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Air the room after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
