Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hockley, Nottingham
Bath resealing across Hockley and nearby, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Unsealed corners
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hockley, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Bath resealing in Hockley, done in place
We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. We are often asked to fix black mould in the sealant and old sealant that looks dirty, in baths, wet rooms and kitchen worktops & sinks.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Hidden water damage
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hollow or loose tiles
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Work for landlords and builders
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hockley use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hockley: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower generally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Let steam out after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Common problems we fix in Hockley
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- A messy previous reseal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Gaps by the taps
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if they find more damage
- How your room will be protected
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
