What we are called out for in Abbotsham

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Gaps by the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Sealant that is split or lifting

Before booking anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Abbotsham questions

Can you reseal over the old silicone?

We always remove the old sealant completely. New silicone won’t bond to old.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Abbotsham is covered. Prices do not change with location.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

What bath resealing costs

There is no area surcharge for Abbotsham. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EX39 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Hidden water damage

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Is resealing worth it?

Compared with repairing water damage, resealing is cheap. It’s a quick job that protects your walls and floors. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal

Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
