Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Holywell, East Sussex
Bath resealing in and around Holywell: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Gaps in the seal
What affects the price in Holywell
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Bath resealing at your home in Holywell
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Clean, white joints make a bathroom look cared for, and they keep water out. Our technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are a messy previous reseal and gaps in the seal.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
- A flexing bath
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- 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.
- We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Questions from Holywell
How long will it take?
Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Typically poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How long does silicone take to cure?
Typically after around 24 hours. We will tell you the exact time.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Is resealing worth it?
A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s quick, tidy and protects your home. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
