About our bath resealing in Holmfield
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they keep water out. Whether it’s unsealed corners and black mould in the sealant, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Air the room after use
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
What bath resealing costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Holmfield, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Your questions about bath resealing in Holmfield
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Generally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Normally about a day later. We’ll tell you the exact time.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Hidden water damage
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Baths
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
