Bath resealing in High Cross Bank, done in place
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. We work on baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and discoloured, yellow sealant.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Common problems we fix in High Cross Bank
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Damp near the bath

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for High Cross Bank. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Resealing in High Cross Bank: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No extra charge for your area
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Common questions in High Cross Bank
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, including clearing up.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
