What else we do in Spital Tongues
Do you need bath resealing in Spital Tongues?
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Damp near the bath
- Black mould in the sealant
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if they find more damage
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Spital Tongues questions
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you work in Spital Tongues?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Spital Tongues and the rest of Newcastle upon Tyne. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How we price bath resealing
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Spital Tongues, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
