About our bath resealing in Cross Lane
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. We work on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people contact us are damp near the bath and sealant that’s split or lifting.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Let steam out after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What affects the price in Cross Lane
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you are in Cross Lane and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Cross Lane: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
