Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
What affects the price in Bishopwearmouth
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- 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, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Your questions about bath resealing in Bishopwearmouth
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SR1 postcode.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long before I can shower?
Normally after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Do you need bath resealing in Bishopwearmouth?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damp near the bath
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Mould you can’t clean out
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Aftercare advice
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
