Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Newnham, Gloucestershire

Bath resealing at your home in Newnham
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include silicone smeared on tiles and black spots in the silicone, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Do you need bath resealing in Newnham?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- A messy previous reseal
- Black spots in the silicone

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Newnham
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

Your questions about bath resealing in Newnham
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Movement is the usual cause, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We seal baths full of water.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What does bath resealing cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
How we price bath resealing
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Dry the seal after bathing
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
