Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Hurst Green, East Sussex
Our technicians come to Hurst Green for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Leaks at the edges
- A messy previous reseal
- Unsealed corners
How we price bath resealing
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Bath resealing in Hurst Green, done in place
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. Typical jobs include water getting behind the bath or tray and old sealant that looks dirty, across shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What else we do in Hurst Green
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Open a window after bathing
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Keep the joints dry
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.
Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
What we are called out for in Hurst Green
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Mould you cannot clean out
- Leaks at the edges
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Stained silicone
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Resealing in Hurst Green: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Hurst Green: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How much does bath resealing cost in Hurst Green?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
