We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hoe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
Most customers in Hoe get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How we handle bath resealing in Hoe
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and kitchen worktops & sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant that’s split or lifting and black mould in the sealant.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we are called out for in Hoe
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Stained silicone
- Gaps in the seal
- A messy previous reseal
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

FAQs for Hoe
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Surrey.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What else we do in Hoe
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Air the room after use
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
Use the extractor fan, wipe the joints dry after use, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
