- A clear, close picture of the problem area

How we handle bath resealing in Alveston
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why many DIY jobs peel. Our repair technicians work on wet rooms, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured, yellow sealant and silicone smeared on tiles.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Alveston questions
How long does silicone take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Why does my sealant keep splitting?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
We put weight on a tray before sealing it, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- We dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, taps included.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Open a window after bathing
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Use the extractor fan
Good ventilation is the best protection, and wipe the joints after use.
Black mould in sealant isn’t just unsightly, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
Why it’s worth resealing in Alveston
Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- No need to remove anything
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We leave the room as we found it
