Bath resealing at your home in Cross-at-Hand
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and a messy previous reseal, we can help.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Air the room after use
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

FAQs for Cross-at-Hand
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you work in Cross-at-Hand?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Cross-at-Hand from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can new silicone go over old?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Signs you need bath resealing in Cross-at-Hand
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A messy previous reseal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal
- Black spots in the silicone
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to look after the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
