Bath resealing in Cross in Hand, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We are frequently asked to fix a messy previous reseal and sealant that’s split or lifting, on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.

Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Cross in Hand: your questions answered
Do you come to Cross in Hand?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Cross in Hand and the rest of East Sussex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.

- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cross in Hand use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Do you need bath resealing in Cross in Hand?
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Damp near the bath
- Black spots in the silicone
- Discoloured, yellow sealant

What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
