Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in West Moor, Newcastle upon Tyne
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in West Moor, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Stained silicone
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Gaps by the taps
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Bath resealing in West Moor, done in place
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. We regularly repair basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths, and the jobs we see most are leaks at the edges and sealant that’s split or lifting.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

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.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Give the seal a regular clean
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes about two hours for a bath. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we price bath resealing
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for West Moor. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
West Moor questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How much does bath resealing cost in West Moor?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your NE12 postcode.
Do you cover West Moor?
We do. Repair technicians travel to West Moor from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you need bath resealing in West Moor?
In time, even good sealant discolours, especially in a busy family bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Gaps by the taps
- Black mould in the sealant
- An untidy old seal
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Comparing quotes
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in West Moor, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
