DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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 normally cheaper.
Bath resealing at your home in Hove
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you’re dealing with damp near the bath and black spots in the silicone, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hove and across Brighton and Hove.

What we’re called out for in Hove
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all wear it down.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Unsealed corners
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Stained silicone
- A messy previous reseal
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hove as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
If you manage property in Hove, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Air the room after use
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Keep the joints dry
- Store bottles on a shelf
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes around two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- Next we clean the joint and deal with mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Questions from Hove
How much does bath resealing cost in Hove?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you cover the entire of Brighton and Hove?
We cover the whole UK, including Hove and the rest of Brighton and Hove. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
My seal keeps tearing. Why?
The bath or tray is probably flexing. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Movement in the bath or tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
