Questions from Gosforth
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Normally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Do you cover Gosforth?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Gosforth. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take about two hours for a bath, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Preparing for the visit

- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Air the room after use
- Wipe the joints dry after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Different materials, different repairs
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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 photos.

Landlord and trade work in Gosforth
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Why reseal now?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Same prices wherever you are
- Work done at your home or business
- Nothing taken out or refitted
