Questions from Airbles
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?
Usually poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
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, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Airbles. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes about two hours for a bath. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
When to call us in Airbles
Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Black spots in the silicone
- Damp near the bath
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Unsealed corners
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Is resealing worth it?
Putting new silicone over old doesn’t last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
