DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Air the room after use
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, usually around 24 hours.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Hollingdean: your questions answered
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Hollingdean?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
All the old sealant comes out. New silicone won’t bond to old.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Gaps too big for silicone alone
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Basins & vanity units
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes around two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can

What affects the price in Hollingdean
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
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’ll reply with a fixed quote.
