Bath resealing in Stone Cross, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. We’re frequently asked to fix a messy previous reseal and unsealed corners, across basins & vanity units, baths and kitchen worktops & sinks.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Open a window after bathing
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

What affects the price in Stone Cross
There is no area surcharge for Stone Cross. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Stone Cross: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
