How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.

Signs you need bath resealing in Adur

Sealant does not last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould feeds on, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Silicone coming away from the tiles
  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Adur

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Is resealing worth it?

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our prices page.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, once the joint is completely dry.

Questions from Adur

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I stop mould in sealant?

Mould needs moisture. Ventilation and drying keep it clean longer.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you come to Adur?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Adur. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long does resealing take?

A bath or shower typically takes a couple of hours. Leave it to cure before use.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes around two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
