About our bath resealing in Newbrough
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with sealant that’s split or lifting and black mould in the sealant, we can typically put it right, on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you need bath resealing in Newbrough?
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.

How we price bath resealing
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Use the extractor fan
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
