Bath resealing in Workington without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: every bit of old silicone out, mould treated, the joint clean and dry. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include old sealant that looks dirty and water getting behind the bath or tray, across baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep the joints dry
- Let steam out after showers
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

FAQs for Workington
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How much does bath resealing cost in Workington?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CA14 postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How long does resealing take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Landlord and trade work in Workington
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What we are called out for in Workington
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Common reasons people in Workington contact us are:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- A messy previous reseal
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- What prep work is covered
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
