Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hope, Derbyshire
Bath resealing across Hope and nearby, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Damp near the bath
Bath resealing in Hope without replacing anything
Baths are resealed with water in them, so the joint opens fully, which stops the new seal tearing the first time the bath is used. If you’re dealing with leaks at the edges and unsealed corners, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes around two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- 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.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What bath resealing costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Hope. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Repairs by material
Baths
Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
FAQs for Hope
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.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?
The whole UK, including all of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Do you work in Hope?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Hope and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

When to call us in Hope
A bathroom without good ventilation is hard on sealant: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Damp near the bath
- Gaps by the taps
- Stained silicone
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Keep the joints dry
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
Avoid scraping the joints, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
