- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is from start to finish. For a job in Cross Lane, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We cover the area around the joints we are working on.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- The joint is finished neatly and we explain when it can get wet.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

How we handle bathroom resealing in Cross Lane
Before a bath is sealed, it’s filled with water. The weight settles the bath to its lowest point, so the bead isn’t stretched the first time someone gets in. It’s a small step that rushed reseals tend to skip. If you have a joint torn by a bath that flexes and shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop, we can put it right, on wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths alike.
Homes around Cross Lane range from older cottages to more recent houses. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Cross Lane as everywhere else we work.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Wipe up water along the back of the worktop
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
Clean the silicone with care: a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth is enough. Scourers and blades can nick the surface, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. Resealing before that happens protects the worktop.
Why it’s worth doing now in Cross Lane
A quick bead over the top of the old one might look better for a while, but it can’t stick to what’s underneath. Water creeps under it and mould follows, and the next reseal means two layers to cut out. In an older home around Cross Lane, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will talk you through it.

What we are called out for in Cross Lane
The wrong product fails fast. Acrylic caulk and general-purpose sealants are not designed for a joint that is wet every day, so they crack, discolour or grow mould quickly. Wet areas call for a sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Water getting behind the kitchen upstand
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Black spots spreading through the bead
Schools such as Summerfields Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Before you book anyone
- What insurance they hold
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
What we cannot put right
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. It will not solve:
- A tray or bath that’s cracked through
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

- How easy the joints are to reach
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Any working-time requirements on site
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Cross Lane homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. Cross Lane has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
If you live in an older home near St Paul's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Cross Lane
Do you work in hotels near Cross Lane?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Do you cover Cross Lane for bathroom resealing?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Cross Lane is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long does a bath or shower reseal take?
Allow two to three hours for a typical bath, depending on how much old sealant there is. We will confirm how long your job needs when we quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. Every job carries our 12-month guarantee.
Can new silicone go straight over the old?
No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. We cut out all of the old sealant, clean the joint and start again.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
