How it works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take around two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Open a window after bathing
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

FAQs for Newbridge

How long before I can shower?

You will get the curing time from us.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

What affects the price in Newbridge

You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: 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.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newbridge. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything
