Bath resealing at your home in Hayton
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Common call-outs are for gaps by the taps and gaps in the seal, across baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When to call us in Hayton
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed while the bath was empty.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Black mould in the sealant

How we price bath resealing
There’s no area surcharge for Hayton. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
What happens on the day
You do not 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 normally takes about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Your questions about bath resealing in Hayton
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do you come to Hayton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hayton and the rest of Cumbria. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Typically because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Can new silicone go over old?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
How long does resealing take?
Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
