When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- A flexing bath
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
Bath resealing at your home in Tebay
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about a messy previous reseal and missing sealant behind the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Common problems we fix in Tebay
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners
Questions to ask before booking

- Aftercare advice
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Questions from Tebay
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Tebay?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Landlord and trade work in Tebay
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tebay as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How we price bath resealing
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
