Bath resealing in Ingleton without replacing anything
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s a messy previous reseal and leaks at the edges, we can typically put it right, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take 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.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice
Your questions about bath resealing in Ingleton
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Generally because the bath or tray moves. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Ingleton included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ingleton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from photos so you don’t 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.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A flexing bath
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hidden water damage
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
Common problems we fix in Ingleton
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps in the seal
- Black mould in the sealant
- Gaps by the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- How to care for the finish

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Give the seal a regular clean
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Ingleton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
