About our bath resealing in Barrow-in-Furness
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Common call-outs are for old sealant that looks dirty and silicone smeared on tiles, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms 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 bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LA14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Common questions in Barrow-in-Furness
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What does bath resealing cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
