Your questions about bath resealing in Hoby
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Hoby and the rest of Leicestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone will not bond to old.
How much does bath resealing cost in Hoby?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How long before I can shower?
Usually after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How we handle bath resealing in Hoby
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Typical jobs include black mould in the sealant and a messy previous reseal, in wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- A flexing bath

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for about two hours for a bath. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What affects the price in Hoby
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Hoby, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
Signs you need bath resealing in Hoby
No sealant lasts for ever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Leaks at the edges
- Black mould in the sealant
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
