Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Throckley, Newcastle upon Tyne
We travel to Throckley for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Damp near the bath
- Unsealed corners
- An untidy old seal
What we are called out for in Throckley
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- An untidy old seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- Leaks at the edges
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long it needs to cure
- Who turns up on the day
- What prep work is covered
Bath resealing in Throckley without replacing anything
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and people most frequently call us about unsealed corners and discoloured, yellow sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Throckley and across Newcastle upon Tyne.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep the joints dry
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
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.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take about two hours for a bath.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- 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
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Throckley: your questions answered
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Throckley. Prices do not change with location.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Throckley?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What affects the price in Throckley
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NE15 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
