How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

About our bath resealing in Auchterarder

All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, basins & vanity units and baths, and common reasons people contact us are unsealed corners and leaks at the edges.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Auchterarder questions

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How long before I can shower?

Typically after around 24 hours. We confirm before we leave.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you seal over the old sealant?

We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
  • Hollow or loose tiles
  • Movement in the bath or tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Why it’s worth resealing in Auchterarder

Resealing costs very little, and it protects everything around the bath. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Auchterarder. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
