Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hollins Green, Derbyshire
We travel to Hollins Green for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Stained silicone
- Mould you can’t clean out
- A messy previous reseal
About our bath resealing in Hollins Green
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant does not stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Typical jobs include sealant that’s split or lifting and leaks at the edges, on shower trays & enclosures, wet rooms and baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Your questions about bath resealing in Hollins Green
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Hollins Green and the rest of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

What we do, step by step

- We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Preparing for the visit

- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
When to call us in Hollins Green
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- An untidy old seal
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
