Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Highfield, Gateshead
We travel to Highfield for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Leaks at the edges
- Stained silicone
- Gaps by the taps
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
About our bath resealing in Highfield
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal doesn’t tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include a messy previous reseal and discoloured, yellow sealant, in shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Highfield and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Highfield questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Gateshead. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What else we do in Highfield
Do you need bath resealing in Highfield?
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Stained silicone
- Damp near the bath

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take around two hours.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can

Why it’s worth resealing in Highfield
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
