About our bath resealing in Crooklands
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Typical jobs include damp near the bath and old sealant that looks dirty, in baths, basins & vanity units and wet rooms.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes around two hours. We leave the room clean.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Crooklands: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
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.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you come to Crooklands?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Crooklands. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
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. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Do you need bath resealing in Crooklands?
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Damp near the bath
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Aftercare advice
Resealing in Crooklands: why it matters
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Work done at your home or business
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
