Bath resealing in Scotforth without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Only then does the new sealant go on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people contact us are gaps in the seal and old sealant that looks dirty.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Questions from Scotforth
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Scotforth?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LA1 postcode.
Do you cover Scotforth?
We do. We send a technician to Scotforth for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What else we do in Scotforth
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Don’t 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.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes around two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
What bath resealing costs
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Scotforth. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Do you need bath resealing in Scotforth?
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

- Leaks at the edges
- Gaps in the seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant
Questions to ask before booking
- How to care for the finish
