Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Newton, Tameside
Bath resealing in and around Newton: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Gaps by the taps
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
Bath resealing in Newton, done in place
A proper reseal starts with removing every trace of the old silicone. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Our repair technicians work on shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and people most frequently call us about discoloured, yellow sealant and black spots in the silicone.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newton
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Advice
FAQs for Newton
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Are there extra charges for Newton?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Why reseal now?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
