For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holtby as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How we handle bath resealing in Holtby
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. If you’re dealing with old sealant that looks dirty and leaks at the edges, we can generally put it right, on basins & vanity units, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Holtby
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
How long does a reseal take?
Most reseals take about two hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Holtby.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Holtby?
Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your YO19 postcode.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Baths
We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.
What affects the price in Holtby
There is no charge for travel to Holtby. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower, we can give you a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
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 frequently lifts.
