Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Newby, Lancashire
Our repair technicians come to Newby for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- An untidy old seal
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Unsealed corners
The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Bath resealing in Newby, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms, and common reasons people contact us are black spots in the silicone and silicone coming away from the tiles.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Newby and across Lancashire.

When a repair is not the answer

- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Hidden water damage

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Newby questions
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Newby.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Air the room after use
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newby
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Why it’s worth resealing in Newby
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
