Bath resealing at your home in Rabbit's Cross
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Our repair technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people contact us are silicone smeared on tiles and mould you can’t clean out.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep the joints dry
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps by the taps
- Sealant that is split or lifting

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Different materials, different repairs
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Questions from Rabbit's Cross
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Rabbit's Cross?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
How long does a reseal take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Are there extra charges for Rabbit's Cross?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
