Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Crossway, Herefordshire
Bath resealing in and around Crossway: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, typically around 24 hours.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How we handle bath resealing in Crossway
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for silicone coming away from the tiles and damp near the bath, in baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we’re called out for in Crossway
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- A messy previous reseal
Before booking anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Your questions about bath resealing in Crossway
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you come to Crossway?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Crossway from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
