How we handle bath resealing in Fellside
We cut out all of the old sealant, deal with any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We’re often asked to fix discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone coming away from the tiles, on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

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 does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.

What affects the price in Fellside

- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NE16 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Let steam out after showers
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Fellside questions
How much does bath resealing cost in Fellside?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Damp is the cause. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
