About our bath resealing in Gateshead Fell
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint opens fully, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. If you’re dealing with an untidy old seal and sealant that’s split or lifting, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The process
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’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What else we do in Gateshead Fell
Signs you need bath resealing in Gateshead Fell
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Black spots in the silicone
- Stained silicone
- Gaps by the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- If travel is included in the price
- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Air the room after use
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Why it’s worth resealing in Gateshead Fell

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gateshead Fell. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
