Advice
About our bath resealing in Newton upon Derwent
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Whether it’s leaks at the edges and old sealant that looks dirty, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Riding of Yorkshire.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep the joints dry
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Newton upon Derwent
Do you work in Newton upon Derwent?

Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
