Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Newbold, Rochdale
We travel to Newbold for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- An untidy old seal
- Leaks at the edges
What bath resealing costs
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Newbold. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
For a price in Newbold, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Bath resealing at your home in Newbold
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. New silicone will not bond to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include silicone smeared on tiles and old sealant that looks dirty, in kitchen worktops & sinks, baths and wet rooms.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Newbold as everywhere else we work.

Advice
Newbold questions
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Can new silicone go over old?
We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone will not bond to old.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When to call us in Newbold
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- An untidy old seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
- How your room will be protected
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Open a window after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Why it’s worth resealing in Newbold
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, which costs far more to put right. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
