Bath resealing in Crosby, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are stained silicone and gaps by the taps.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Crosby
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Crosby?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Crosby for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep the joints dry
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
