Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One price list for the entire UK

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Open a window after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, usually around 24 hours.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

How much does bath resealing cost in Cross Lanes?
We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a couple of hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can

- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What bath resealing costs
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When to call us in Cross Lanes
