DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Hollow or loose tiles
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Baths
FAQs for Millholme
What does bath resealing cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your LA8 postcode.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the curing time from us.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
Never over old. It’s removed, cleaned off and the joint dried first.
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower usually takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Landlord and trade work in Millholme
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
- We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Millholme. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Open a window after bathing
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Give the seal a regular clean
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Signs you need bath resealing in Millholme
Poor ventilation speeds things up: moisture sits on the joints longer, and mould takes hold.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Damp near the bath
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Gaps in the seal
- Gaps by the taps
What to look for in a quote
- If travel is included in the price
- Who turns up on the day
- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
