What we’re called out for in Swarland
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- An untidy old seal
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Leaks at the edges
- Old sealant that looks dirty

Bath resealing at your home in Swarland
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and reseal with new mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We regularly repair baths, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most often call us about a messy previous reseal and water getting behind the bath or tray.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Swarland and across Northumberland.

What affects the price in Swarland
There’s no area surcharge for Swarland. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Questions from Swarland
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How much does bath resealing cost in Swarland?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you work in Swarland?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Swarland from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- Old sealant and residue are removed.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NE65 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Is resealing worth it?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
