Bath Resealing in Holborough
Bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone in Holborough, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Unsealed corners
- Leaks at the edges
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Bath resealing at your home in Holborough
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Whether it’s water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Resealing in Holborough: why it matters
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Holborough
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning only removes the surface.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Black mould in the sealant

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Hidden water damage
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms

FAQs for Holborough
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
We cover the whole UK, including Holborough and the rest of Kent. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Kent.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What affects the price in Holborough
We do not charge extra for travel to Holborough. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
