Bath resealing in Hollywood without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint is at its widest, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. Typical jobs include gaps in the seal and black mould in the sealant, in baths, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hollywood as everywhere else we work.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Air the room after use
Avoid scraping the joints, and don’t stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How we price bath resealing
There is no charge for travel to Hollywood. The price depends on:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Hollywood, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we’re called out for in Hollywood
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

- Sealant that is split or lifting

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Questions from Hollywood
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us, typically around a day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you cover the whole of Worcestershire?
We cover the entire UK, including Hollywood and the rest of Worcestershire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Why does the silicone keep cracking?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hollywood
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hollywood as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
