About our bath resealing in Crosshill

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s gaps by the taps and black mould in the sealant, we can normally put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.

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

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Basins & vanity units

Questions from Crosshill

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Are you accredited?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

When to call us in Crosshill

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Sealant that’s split or lifting
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Water getting behind the bath or tray

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the colour is matched
  • How to look after the finish

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Ventilate the bathroom well
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
  2. The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
  3. The joint is dried thoroughly.
  4. We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
  5. We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can

Landlord and trade work in Crosshill

For anyone letting property in or around Crosshill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

What affects the price in Crosshill

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.
