Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Meadowfield, County Durham
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone for homes and businesses in Meadowfield and across County Durham. Send photos for a free, fixed quote.
- Damp near the bath
- Black spots in the silicone
- Silicone smeared on tiles
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Keep the joints dry
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, generally around 24 hours.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What bath resealing costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common problems we fix in Meadowfield
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps by the taps
- Black spots in the silicone
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Before you book anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
