Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Culgaith, Cumbria
Bath resealing for Culgaith, without a refit. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, then we come to you.
- Unsealed corners
- Stained silicone
- Black spots in the silicone
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
Bath resealing in Culgaith without replacing anything
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths, and people most often call us about missing sealant behind the taps and old sealant that looks dirty.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Is resealing worth it?
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Culgaith: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Usually because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How long before I can shower?
Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes around two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Culgaith
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Damp near the bath
- Sealant that is split or lifting
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use the extractor fan
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
