What we’re called out for in Abbey Dore

Poor ventilation speeds things up: damp hangs around, and mould grows faster.

People usually call us when they notice one of these:

  • Unsealed corners
  • Stained silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Damp near the bath

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A flexing bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet rooms
  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks
  • Baths

What affects the price in Abbey Dore

We charge the same across the UK, including Abbey Dore. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing is a small job. Putting off a reseal lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Everything repaired in place

Your questions about bath resealing in Abbey Dore

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

How long before I can shower?

Normally about a day later. We confirm before we leave.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How long does a reseal take?

Normally a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abbey Dore

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for 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’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
