Bath resealing in Greencroft without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are water getting behind the bath or tray and unsealed corners.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Greencroft and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Why it’s worth resealing in Greencroft
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. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage

Signs you need bath resealing in Greencroft
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A messy previous reseal
- Damp near the bath
- Black mould in the sealant
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long it needs to cure
What bath resealing costs
You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Greencroft
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Open a window after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
