Alpraham questions

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, 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.

When to call us in Alpraham

Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Missing sealant behind the taps
  • Sealant that is split or lifting
  • Discoloured, yellow sealant
  • An untidy old seal

Before booking anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes about two hours for a bath, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  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 which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Alpraham

There’s no area surcharge for Alpraham. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CW6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Air the room after use
  • Keep bottles off the joints

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

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

We put weight on a tray before sealing it, so the joint is at its widest.

Sinks and worktops

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

Honest limits

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

  • Gaps too big for silicone alone
  • Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
  • Hidden water damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
