Bath resealing at your home in Poulton-le-Sands
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you are dealing with missing sealant behind the taps and leaks at the edges, we can typically put it right, on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Let steam out after showers
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

What affects the price in Poulton-le-Sands

- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
