Bath Resealing for Stank homes
Bath resealing in and around Stank: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Unsealed corners
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Bath resealing in Stank without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with black spots in the silicone and gaps by the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stank. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
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 we’re called out for in Stank
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Black mould in the sealant
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps by the taps
- An untidy old seal
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
- How changes to the job are handled
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Can I fix it myself?
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LA13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Stank. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Your questions about bath resealing in Stank
Do you come to Stank?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Stank and the rest of Cumbria. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What areas do you cover?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
