Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Ingol. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Ingol. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Your questions about bath resealing in Ingol
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How long does silicone take to cure?
We will give you the curing time, typically around a day.
Do you cover the entire of Lancashire?
We cover the entire UK, including Ingol and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
