Bath resealing in Newport, done in place
A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. If you are dealing with mould you can’t clean out and an untidy old seal, we can usually put it right, on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them
We don’t charge extra for travel to Newport. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Newport and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CB11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Newport
Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Stained silicone
- Mould you cannot clean out
- An untidy old seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Comparing quotes
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Air the room after use
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Dry the seal after bathing
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Why it’s worth resealing in Newport
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Work done at your home or business

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. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Your questions about bath resealing in Newport
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
