How we handle bath resealing in Sookholme
We reseal baths with them filled with water, so the joint is at its widest, so the seal does not tear when the bath is first used. Typical jobs include silicone smeared on tiles and stained silicone, across kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Repairs by material
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take about two hours for a bath, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, taps included.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sookholme. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Sookholme, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

FAQs for Sookholme
How long does a reseal take?
A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mould needs moisture. Run the fan, dry the joints and the new seal stays cleaner for longer.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Signs you need bath resealing in Sookholme
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- An untidy old seal
- Mould you can’t clean out
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Open a window after bathing
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.
Reseal before water gets in. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
