About our bath resealing in Cross Stone

Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for unsealed corners and damp near the bath, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Is resealing worth it?

A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cross Stone. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Read our pricing.

How we price bath resealing

We don’t charge extra for travel to Cross Stone. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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 the same day in most cases.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Baths
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cross Stone as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Cross Stone, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Questions from Cross Stone

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can new silicone go over old?

Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

How long does a reseal take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Cross Stone and the rest of Calderdale. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
