Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Run 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. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Bath resealing in Howgill, done in place
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, in a neat, continuous bead. Common call-outs are for gaps in the seal and black spots in the silicone, in shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Howgill and across Lancashire.

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
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.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Common questions in Howgill
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?
We cover the whole UK, including Howgill and the rest of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How much does bath resealing cost in Howgill?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Resealing in Howgill: why it matters
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes about two hours for a bath, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
