Bath resealing in and around Cross Hands: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.

Bath resealing in Cross Hands without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and people most frequently call us about leaks at the edges and sealant that’s split or lifting.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
How we price bath resealing
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

FAQs for Cross Hands
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you work in Cross Hands?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cross Hands and the rest of Carmarthenshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
Avoid scraping the joints, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
