Bath Resealing for Lytham homes
Fixed-price bath resealing in Lytham and the surrounding area, generally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Damp near the bath
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
How we handle bath resealing in Lytham
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about black spots in the silicone and sealant that’s split or lifting.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
- Use the extractor fan
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Questions from Lytham
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How much does bath resealing cost in Lytham?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How the visit works

- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.

What bath resealing costs
We price every job individually. The main factors are:

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
When to call us in Lytham
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Damp near the bath
- Black mould in the sealant
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Old sealant that looks dirty
