What bath resealing costs
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Bath resealing at your home in Buckland Hollow
We reseal baths, shower trays, basins and worktops. A typical reseal takes a couple of hours, plus curing time. We work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are old sealant that looks dirty and an untidy old seal.

What else we do in Buckland Hollow
Different materials, different repairs
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.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
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.
Common questions in Buckland Hollow
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Damp is the cause. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Buckland Hollow?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Buckland Hollow and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Buckland Hollow.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We ensure the joint is completely dry.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
