You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing costs very little. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newlands. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DH8 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
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 pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A flexing bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
