How we handle bath resealing in Holme 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 so many DIY reseals peel. We regularly repair wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures, and common reasons people get in touch are black mould in the sealant and water getting behind the bath or tray.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wokingham.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damp near the bath

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Let steam out after showers
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Holme Green questions
How long does resealing take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
Do you come to Holme Green?
We do. We send a technician to Holme Green for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are there extra charges for Holme Green?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Holme Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Why it’s worth resealing in Holme Green
Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wokingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we do, step by step
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 around two hours, tidy-up included.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- 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
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
