Bath resealing in Crosscanonby without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We’re frequently asked to fix silicone smeared on tiles and missing sealant behind the taps, on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A flexing bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Crosscanonby

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Keep the joints dry
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Open a window after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Why it’s worth resealing in Crosscanonby
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Fixed prices from your photos
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Questions from Crosscanonby
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause. We seal baths full of water.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Do you need bath resealing in Crosscanonby?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant
- Unsealed corners
- Sealant that is split or lifting

The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled 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.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
