Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Bolsover, Derbyshire
Our repair technicians come to Bolsover for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Damp near the bath
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Bath resealing in Bolsover 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. If you are dealing with silicone smeared on tiles and mould you can’t clean out, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Bolsover: your questions answered
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Bolsover?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What affects the price in Bolsover
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
