A reseal is a small job that makes a big difference. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they protect the walls and floor. We regularly repair wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and kitchen worktops & sinks, and people most frequently call us about black spots in the silicone and missing sealant behind the taps.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Your questions about bath resealing in Hollingrove

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How long does resealing take?

Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

No, we never seal over old silicone. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

How long does silicone take to cure?

Usually after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes about two hours for a bath in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

What affects the price in Hollingrove

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You don’t 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 reply with a fixed price.

What we are called out for in Hollingrove

Sealant does not last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Old sealant that looks dirty
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Missing sealant behind the taps

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Keep bottles off the joints

Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.

Different materials, different repairs

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, so the joint is at its widest.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hollingrove

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Why reseal now?

Resealing is a small job. Leaving split or mouldy sealant can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are

See our prices page.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
