Bath resealing in Cockden, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and damp near the bath, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cockden as everywhere else we work.

Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
FAQs for Cockden
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your BB10 postcode.

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Why does mould come back so fast?

Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
