Prices and what affects them

There is no charge for travel to Afton Park. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Bath resealing in Afton Park without replacing anything

We cut out all of the old sealant, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, and that includes the awkward spots behind the taps. Whether it’s silicone coming away from the tiles and black spots in the silicone, we can usually put it right, on wet rooms, baths and shower trays & enclosures alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, so the joint is at its widest.

Baths

Baths are resealed with water in them, to open the joint fully.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Afton Park as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
  • Movement in the bath or tray
  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take around two hours.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Afton Park

Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone
  • Damp near the bath
  • An untidy old seal

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What preparation is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Give the seal a regular clean
  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Open a window after bathing
  • Dry the seal after bathing

Run the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.
