Bath resealing in Cross Lanes

Bath resealing in Cross Lanes, done in place

The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Whether it’s sealant that’s split or lifting and silicone smeared on tiles, we can generally put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Let steam out after showers

Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Cross Lanes

No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended

  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before booking

Cross Lanes: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Wrexham.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Resealing in Cross Lanes: why it matters

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes about two hours for a bath. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
