The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Gaps by the taps
- Leaks at the edges
- Black spots in the silicone

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What else we do in Ballumbie
Why reseal now?
A reseal is one of the cheapest bathroom jobs there is. Leaving failed sealant can let water cause damage that costs far more to fix. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our prices page.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Give the seal a regular clean
- Use the extractor fan
- Let steam out after showers
Do not scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and do not stand bottles on the seal.
Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes around two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- The joint is cleaned and any mould treated.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- We run a new bead of mould-resistant silicone and smooth it neatly, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
