How we handle bath resealing in Newcastle Higher
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are discoloured, yellow sealant and sealant that’s split or lifting.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Signs you need bath resealing in Newcastle Higher
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Unsealed corners

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, once the joint is completely dry.

Common questions in Newcastle Higher
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you cover the whole of Bridgend?
Across the UK, so Newcastle Higher is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Typically after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
