High Cross: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time, normally around a day.
Will it make a mess?

How we price bath resealing
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in High Cross and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Run the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Resealing in High Cross: why it matters
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Do you need bath resealing in High Cross?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Leaks at the edges
- An untidy old seal
- Gaps in the seal
- Black mould in the sealant
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How soon you can use it again
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
