Bath resealing at your home in Lower Holbrook
Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and gaps in the seal, on basins & vanity units, baths and wet rooms.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlord and trade work in Lower Holbrook
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

When to call us in Lower Holbrook

- An untidy old seal

Common questions in Lower Holbrook
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
How long does resealing take?
Around two hours for a bath, plus curing time.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Resealing in Lower Holbrook: why it matters
Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Open a window after bathing
Keep the room well ventilated, and wipe the joints after use.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
