Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alder Moor as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we’re called out for in Alder Moor
Sealant splits when the bath or tray moves, often because it was sealed with the bath empty.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- An untidy old seal
- Stained silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What affects the price in Alder Moor
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Alder Moor. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
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. Allow around two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We cut out and remove all of the old sealant.
- 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 run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Your questions about bath resealing in Alder Moor
How long will it take?
Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How long does silicone take to cure?
You will get the curing time from us, generally around a day.
Do you cover Alder Moor?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Alder Moor and the rest of Staffordshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can new silicone go over old?
Never over old. The old sealant is cut out and the joint cleaned and dried.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Hollow or loose tiles
- Movement in the bath or tray
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Alder Moor
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Shower trays & enclosures
Why reseal now?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
