When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath

Bath resealing at your home in Castleside
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Typical jobs include unsealed corners and an untidy old seal, on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What affects the price in Castleside
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried 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, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Your questions about bath resealing in Castleside
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Which areas do you work in?
All of County Durham, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
