How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated and dried.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. A proper reseal removes the old first. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Different materials, different repairs

Shower trays

Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

An Druim Beag questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How long does silicone take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time, typically around a day.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

All the old sealant comes out. Fresh silicone does not stick to old.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Let steam out after showers
  • Reseal when black spots will not clean off
  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing so mould struggles to take hold.

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.

How we price bath resealing

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in An Druim Beag

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in An Druim Beag as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
