Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
About our bath resealing in Northlea
Baths, trays, basins and kitchen worktops all get resealed using mould-resistant silicone. Most jobs take a couple of hours, then it needs to cure. We regularly repair kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about black spots in the silicone and water getting behind the bath or tray.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Northlea and across County Durham.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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 typically the cheaper route.

Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Common problems we fix in Northlea

Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Resealing in Northlea: why it matters
