Bath Resealing for Longhirst homes
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homes and businesses in Longhirst and across Northumberland. Free, fixed quotes from your photos.
- Stained silicone
- Leaks at the edges
- A messy previous reseal
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Let steam out after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Bath resealing in Longhirst without replacing anything
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and common reasons people get in touch are missing sealant behind the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs
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, so the joint is at its widest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Longhirst
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning cannot get it all out.
The things clients typically mention when they call are:
- Unsealed corners
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges

Why it’s worth resealing in Longhirst
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Longhirst. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hidden water damage
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
