Different materials, different repairs

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abbeytown

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Abbeytown, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Questions from Abbeytown

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work in Abbeytown?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Abbeytown. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Abbeytown. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Why does mould come back so fast?

Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.

How long will it take?

Usually a couple of hours, plus curing time.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Signs you need bath resealing in Abbeytown

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed while the bath was empty.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

  • Leaks at the edges
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Mould you can’t clean out
  • A messy previous reseal

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

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 the work begins. It normally takes around two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get 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. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Resealing in Abbeytown: why it matters

A professional reseal costs little compared with water damage. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why Abbeytown customers choose us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our pricing.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not stand toiletries on the seal
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Open a window after bathing

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally around 24 hours.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • A flexing bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What bath resealing costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
