- Unsealed corners
- A messy previous reseal
- Mould you cannot clean out
When to call us in Archdeacon Newton
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Leaks at the edges
- A messy previous reseal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Gaps by the taps
What to look for in a quote
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Bath resealing in Archdeacon Newton without replacing anything
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and a new seal stops it. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms, and people most often call us about silicone smeared on tiles and gaps by the taps.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Archdeacon Newton as everywhere else we work.

What bath resealing costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Archdeacon Newton. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Archdeacon Newton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Let steam out after showers
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Archdeacon Newton: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Archdeacon Newton included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
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.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Resealing in Archdeacon Newton: why it matters

What you get with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Normally one visit, start to finish

How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
