About our bath resealing in Hope
Resealing is quick, but it transforms the look. Fresh joints make the entire room look cleaner, and they protect the walls and floor. Our repair technicians work on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures, and people most often call us about missing sealant behind the taps and an untidy old seal.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours, tidy-up included.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- For a bath, we fill it with water first so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
When to call us in Hope
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Damp near the bath
- Unsealed corners
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
What affects the price in Hope
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Let steam out after showers
Let it cure fully before using the bath or shower, normally about a day.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
FAQs for Hope
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
No, we never seal over old silicone. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
When can I use the bath after resealing?
We’ll give you the curing time, typically around a day.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.
Do you work in Hope?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Hope. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- A flexing bath
- Hidden water damage
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
