For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes about two hours for a bath, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price bath resealing

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Allandale, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Most jobs done in one visit

What your bath or shower is made of matters

Sinks and worktops

We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.

Shower trays

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

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
  • Let steam out after showers
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Keep the joints dry

Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.

If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

Allandale questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Something is moving. Persistent splitting can mean the support needs attention.

What does bath resealing cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you come to Allandale?

We do. Technicians travel to Allandale from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How long does a reseal take?

Most reseals take about two hours. It then needs time to cure.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Why does my sealant keep going mouldy?

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